QDOT Micro catheter is a next generation catheter. Its optimized temperature control and micro\u2010electrode technology are designed to provide more efficient and consistent lesion creation with an accurate myocardial substrate analysis. This study aims to compare the myocardial electro\u2010anatomic maps obtained using QDOT and Pentaray (PR) catheters.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study enrolled patients with symptomatic VT and indication to perform CA following the latest guidelines.
