High Resolution, Live, Directional Mapping

Conventional arrhythmia mapping involves building activation maps from numerous catheter placements and sequential acquisitions during a stable rhythm. Multi-electrode high-density (HD) catheters have enabled comprehensive and dense maps of electrogram (EGM) amplitude and timing. Despite automated algorithms, activation mapping still involves time annotation, numerous acquisitions, and re-annotation —often beyond the ability of an electrophysiologist to verify during mapping. Additionally, conventional activation mapping may involve using all or most of the cardiac chamber to locate the source of arrhythmia.
