Background:

Computer models of ventricular electrophysiology are increasingly detailed.
Parameterization of these complex models presents a significant challenge.
Matching model predictions to experimental or patient data is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose techniques for determining bidomain parameters in ventricular electrophysiology models.
To ensure agreement between model-derived and experimental activation sequences.
To facilitate accurate computational modeling of cardiac electrical activity.

Main Methods:

Implementation of an iterative parameterization algorithm to determine bulk conductivities.
Prescribing target velocities to guide the parameterization process.
Developing a method to split bulk conductivities into individual bidomain parameters using anisotropy ratios.

Main Results:

The proposed iterative algorithm successfully determines bulk conductivities that yield prescribed velocities.
The method allows for the separation of bulk conductivities into specific bidomain parameters.
Achieved good agreement in activation sequences between model and experimental data.

Conclusions:

The developed techniques aid in the parameterization of ventricular electrophysiology models.
Accurate parameterization is essential for reliable computational modeling of cardiac function.
These methods improve the integration of experimental and modeling approaches in cardiovascular research.
