Patient-specific computer models of the human atria have the potential to aid clinical intervention in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. However, quantifying and integrating the heterogeneous qualities of the myocardium through imaging is particularly challenging due to the unknown relationship between voxel intensity and tissue conductivities. We establish a method to determine the relationship between […]

Assessing the location and stability of electrical rotors can help target ablation therapy for atrial fibrillation. Rotor cores can be tracked by identifying singularities in the phase of spatially distributed electrical recordings. This is routinely applied to unipolar electrogram and action potential data, but not to bipolar electrogram data, which contains local activation only. We […]

When treating atrial arrhythmias using catheter ablation it is standard practice to create local activation maps of a patient’s atrium to guide treatment. Generating these maps involves recording hundreds of electrograms from the inside surface of the chamber and then using automated algorithms to identify deflections in the signal and choose the activation time for […]

Electroanatomic mapping systems collect increasingly large quantities of spatially-distributed electrical data which may be potentially further scrutinized post-operatively to expose mechanistic properties which sustain and perpetuate atrial fibrillation. We describe a modular software platform, developed to post-process and rapidly analyse data exported from electroanatomic mapping systems using a range of existing and novel algorithms. Imaging […]
