Member of:
Dr. Althoff is senior consultant cardiologist and electrophysiologist at Hospital Clínic, University of Barcelona. Until 2020 he was Head of Cardiac Electrophysiology at the Department of Cardiology and Angiology, Charité University Hospital Berlin.
His clinical and scientific work focuses on the personalized treatment of complex atrial and ventricular arrhythmias making use of novel imaging and non-invasive electroanatomical mapping techniques. He is also directing a translational research lab within the German Center for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK).
Standardized regionalization of the atria for 3D cardiac imaging, electroanatomical mapping and computational modeling. A multidisciplinary consensus of the PersonalizeAF consortium
Non-invasive mapping of atrial slow-conduction areas and validation by endocardial isochronal mapping to predict atrial fibrillation recurrence after ablation
Head-to-head comparison of pulsed field ablation, very high power-short duration, cryoballoon and conventional radiofrequency ablation by LGE-MRI-based ablation lesion assessment
