Three dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) is a promising new tool for 3D imaging strategy or combined with 3D electroanatomical mapping systems might add more understanding to cardiac anatomy in relation to the mapping and ablation procedures. The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to compare the procedural and clinical outcome of patients with all types of arrhythmia treated by catheter ablation using conventional fluoroscopy, three - dimensional (3D) electroanatomical mapping and/or 3DRA. From January 2013 to August 2013. Fifty consecutive patients with different types of arrhythmia (mean age 31.8 + 8.7 years old; 7 patients paroxysmal AF, 6 patients with VT,14 patients with WPW,21 patients with SVT, 2 patients with WCT were randomized to ablation using either 3DRA (18 patients), 3D electroanatomical mapping combined with 3DRA (13 patients) or standard fluoroscopy 19 patients
