    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Cardiac mapping is crucial for diagnosing heart conditions by visualizing the electrical activity (depolarization sequence).
    • Current methods often rely on invasive cardiac electrograms (EGMs) or noninvasive estimations, with the latter frequently producing inaccurate activation maps due to artificial jumps in timing.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel method for constructing more accurate cardiac activation maps.
    • To overcome the limitations of artificial jumps in activation times observed in noninvasive EGM-based mapping.

    Main Methods:

    • The proposed method reconstructs unipolar electrograms (EGMs) and incorporates mutual comparison of neighboring EGMs to estimate activation delays.
    • A workflow was developed to build spatially coherent activation maps using local activation times and estimated inter-site delays.
    • The methodology was optimized with simulated data and validated using clinical data from 12 patients.

    Main Results:

    • Standard EGM analysis methods resulted in maps with artificial gradients in activation time.
    • The new workflow significantly enhanced the accuracy and coherence of cardiac activation maps.
    • The proposed technique effectively reduced artefactual jumps in activation timing.

    Conclusions:

    • Estimating activation delays between neighboring sites is a valuable approach for improving cardiac activation map computation.
    • This method offers a promising advancement for electrocardiographic imaging and cardiac electrophysiology diagnostics.
