In atrial fibrillation treatment surgery, an operator usually adopts radio frequency ablation to perform point-by-point ablation on pulmonary veins to form a completed closed loop, so that the treatment effect of pulmonary vein electrical conduction isolation is achieved. The ability of the lesion of the radiofrequency ablation to penetrate the myocardial wall of the left atrium is a necessary requirement to achieve an electrically conductive isolation effect, and often the operator is concerned about adjacent tissue around the linear region of the left atrial internal circumferential pulmonary vein isolation, avoiding as much as possible the lesion of important adjacent tissue.
