    摘要: In one embodiment, a medical system includes a catheter to be inserted into a chamber of a heart, and including electrodes to capture electrical activity of tissue of the chamber over time, a display, and processing circuitry configured to compute a propagation of a cardiac activation wave over an anatomical map of the chamber from a start time in a cardiac cycle to an end time in the cardiac cycle responsively to the captured electrical activity, render to the display a sub-region of the anatomical map, select a time-bounded portion of the propagation of the cardiac activation wave commencing at a time after the start time responsively to when the propagation would commence to be rendered in the sub-region of the anatomical map, and render to the display the time-bound portion of the propagation of the cardiac activation wave on the sub-region of the anatomical map.

    摘要: Systems and methods are disclosed for linking a point-list to a three-dimensional anatomy of the heart. Techniques disclosed include recording a point-list, where each entry in the point-list comprises data elements, and is associated with a location in the heart and a measurement. The associated measurement is acquired by an electrode of a catheter that is placed at the associated location in the heart. Techniques disclosed further include selecting one or more anchor points associated with a region of interest in the heart, then, for each entry in the recorded point-list, computing a data element of distance between the entry's associated location in the heart and the selected one or more anchor points, and manipulating entries in the point-list based on their respective data elements.

    摘要: A method for identifying candidate locations for ablation includes receiving an electrophysiological (EP) map comprising anatomical surface of cardiac chamber overlaid with (i) activation wave velocity vectors, (ii) data points comprising positions on surface and respective local activation times (LAT), and (iii) areas designated by early meet late (EML) LAT range. Set of shortest paths on cardiac surface is identified between different EML areas. One or more ranges of LAT values are selected, being characterized by lowest prevalence over data points of EP map. Complex tags are generated for positions having the LAT values within the one or more ranges of LAT values having lowest prevalence. Subset of the shortest paths is selected based on (i) density of complex tags along shortest paths and (ii) directions of activation wave velocity vectors relative to each of shortest paths. Selected subset of shortest paths are presented as candidate slow-conduction areas for ablation.
