First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- an image analysis unit that calculates distances between representations of electrodes in an electronic image and that identifies groups based on the calculated distances, wherein each identified group includes a plurality of electrode representations, and wherein a distance between a first electrode representation and a second electrode representation in the electronic image is substantially a same distance as a distance between the second electrode representation and a third electrode representation in the electronic image; and
a characterization unit that determines one or more lead types based on the identified groups.

Abstract
In general, the disclosure is related to electrode-to-lead association using post-implant imaging. An image analysis unit may calculate distances between representations of electrodes in an electronic image and identify groups based on the calculated distances. Each identified group may include a plurality of electrode representations. The distance between a first electrode representation and a second electrode representation may be substantially a same distance between the second electrode representation and a third electrode representation. A characterization unit may determine one or more lead types based on the identified groups.
