Is this mapping system really new?

Is this something new and brilliant, just a re-tread, or advance publicity for something not yet fully developed? In my experience the Daily Mail is not often a reliable source of accurate factual information so I have my doubts.

Nothing new at all. Basket catheters and mapping systems that use them have been around for years. They've demonstrated no special superiority over other types of catheters and mapping systems. The best known example is Topera and the FIRM ablation technique, which was touted as revolutionary just a few years ago, but in the end turned out to be little more than marketing hype.
