Visualization of physiological data for virtual electrodes
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for visualizing physiological data of a patient, the method comprising:
- storing in memory electroanatomic data representing electrical activity for a predetermined surface region of the patient;
providing an interactive graphical representation of the predetermined surface region of the patient;
receiving a user input that defines location data corresponding to a user-selected location for at least one roving virtual electrode on the graphical representation of the predetermined surface region of the patient; and
dynamically generating a graphical representation of the physiological data corresponding to a current location of the roving virtual electrode relative to the graphical representation of the predetermined surface region of the patient, such that the graphical representation of the physiological data is modified continuously responsive to changes in the current location of the roving virtual electrode as the roving virtual electrode is moved.

Abstract
Systems and methods can be utilized to visualize physiological data relative to a surface region (e.g., an organ) of a patient. A computer-implemented method can include storing electroanatomic data in memory representing electrical activity for a predetermined surface region of the patient and providing an interactive graphical representation of the predetermined surface region of the patient. A user input is received to define location data corresponding to a user-selected location for at least one virtual electrode on the graphical representation of the predetermined surface region of the patient. A visual representation of physiological data for the predetermined surface region of the patient is generated based on the location data and the electroanatomic data.
