MR-tracked navigation was performed to the left atrium (LA) and atrioventricular (AV) node, followed by LA electroanatomic mapping and radiofrequency ablation of the pulmonary veins (PVs) and AV node.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:bold>\n              <jats:italic>Methods and Results\u2014<\/jats:italic>\n            <\/jats:bold>\n            One ventricular ablation, 7 PV ablations, 3 LA mappings, and 3 AV node ablations were conducted. Three MRI-compatible devices (ablation\/mapping catheter, torqueable sheath, stimulation\/pacing catheter) were used, each with 4 to 5 tracking microcoils. Transseptal puncture was performed under x-ray, with all other procedural steps performed in the MRI. Preacquired MRI roadmaps served for real-time catheter navigation. Simultaneous tracking of 3 devices was performed at 13 frames per second. LA mapping and PV radiofrequency ablation were performed using tracked ablation catheters and sheaths. Ablation points were registered and verified after ablation using 3D myocardial delayed enhancement and postmortem gross tissue examination. Complete LA electroanatomic mapping was achieved in 3 of 3 pigs, Right inferior PV circumferential ablation was achieved in 3 of 7 pigs, with incomplete isolation caused by limited catheter deflection. During AV node ablation, ventricular pacing was performed, 3 devices were simultaneously tracked, and intracardiac ECGs were displayed. 3D myocardial delayed enhancement visualized node injury 2 minutes after ablation. AV node block succeeded in 2 of 3 pigs, with 1 temporary block.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:bold>\n              <jats:italic>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:italic>\n            <\/jats:bold>\n            LA mapping, PV radiofrequency ablation, and AV node ablation were demonstrated under MRI guidance.
