Abstract Catheter ablation and percutaneous left atrial appendage closure, as the representative for interventional procedures, have been recognized as efficacious treatments for symptom relief and cardiogenic stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Progress and evolution of imaging techniques has been significantly boosting the everchanging improvement of AF interventional techniques. This paper reviews the clinical updates of the application of intracardiac echocardiography in the AF interventional therapies.
