Abstract
Present treatments for ventricular tachycardia have significant drawbacks. To
ameliorate these drawbacks, it may be advantageous to employ an epicardial robotic walker
that performs mapping and ablation with precise control of needle insertion depth. This paper
examines the feasibility of such a system.
