SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER-ACCESSIBLE FOR CATHETER-BASED OPTICAL DETERMINATION OF MET-MYOGLBIN CONTENT FOR ESTIMATING RADIOFREQUENCY ABLATED, CHRONIC LESION FORMATIN IN TISSUE
An exemplary system, method and computer-accessible medium for determining a characteristic(s) of a tissue(s), can be provided which can include, for example, ablating the tissue(s), illuminating the tissue(s) during the ablation procedure and continuously determining the characteristic(s) based on the ablation and illumination procedures. The tissue(s) can be ablated using radiofrequency ablation. The illumination procedure can be performed with a radiation in a visible spectrum.
