This study introduces a novel 3D display for visualizing cardiac activation sequences from the epicardium and endocardium simultaneously. The system simplifies interpretation compared to traditional methods, enhancing correlation between electrode arrays.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cardiovascular Electrophysiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Accurate visualization of cardiac electrical activity is crucial for understanding arrhythmias.
  • Current mapping techniques can be complex and prone to distortion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a simplified 3D display for simultaneous epicardial and endocardial activation mapping.
  • To improve the interpretability and correlation of cardiac activation data.

Main Methods:

  • A 3D display system using three electrode arrays (epicardial, left ventricular, right ventricular).
  • Electrode activation represented by intensified dots in a 3D perspective.
  • Implementation on a standard, low-cost microcomputer.

Main Results:

  • Simultaneous display of epicardial and endocardial activation sequences.
  • Reduced computational requirements and enhanced interpretability versus sliced-isochronal maps.
  • Elimination of 2D distortion, facilitating activation correlation.

Conclusions:

  • The 3D display offers a more intuitive and efficient method for visualizing cardiac activation.
  • This approach aids in correlating electrical activity across different heart layers.
  • The system is implementable on accessible microcomputer hardware.
