    Abstract: A system and method are provided for determining electrophysiological data. The system comprises an electronic control unit that is configured to receive electrical signals from a set of electrodes, receive position and orientation data for the set of electrodes from a mapping system, compensate for position and orientation artifacts of the set of electrodes, compose cliques of a subset of neighboring electrodes in the set of electrodes, determine catheter orientation independent information of a target tissue, and output the orientation independent information to a display. The method comprising receiving electrogram data for a set of electrodes (80), compensating for artifacts in sensor positions in the mapping system (81), resolving the bipolar signals into a 3D vector electrogram in the mapping system coordinates (82), manipulating observed unipolar voltage signals and the tangent component of the e-field to estimate the conduction velocity vector (83), and outputting the catheter orientation independent information (84).

    Abstract: An electrophysiological laboratory system comprises a subsystem configured to perform diagnostic and/or therapeutic functions, a medical device, and an interface module disposed therebetween. The medical device comprises a shaft having proximal and distal portions, high- and low-impedance electrical pathways disposed within the shaft, and an electrode disposed at the distal portion of the shaft and electrically coupled to one or both of the high- and low-impedance electrical pathways. The electrode is configured to perform diagnostic and/or therapy delivery functions. The interface module comprises a high-impedance channel configured to couple the high-impedance pathway of the medical device to the subsystem, and to attenuate magnetic resonance RF and gradient field pulses generated by the MRI system. The interface module further comprises a low-impedance channel configured to couple the low- impedance pathway of the medical device to the subsystem.

    Abstract: A system and method for assessing effective delivery of ablation therapy to a tissue in a body is provided. A three-dimensional anatomical map of the tissue is generated and displayed with the map defining a corresponding volume. An index is generated corresponding to a location within the volume with the index indicative of a state of ablation therapy at the location. The index may be derived from one or more factors such as the duration an ablation electrode is present at the location, the amount of energy provided, the degree of electrical coupling between an ablation electrode and the tissue at the location and temperature. A visual characteristic (e.g., color intensity) of a portion of the anatomical map corresponding to the location is then altered responsive to the index.
