System and method for reconstructing cardiac activation information
First Claim
1. A method of processing cardiac information associated with a heart rhythm disorder, the method comprising:
- accessing, using a computing device, a plurality of neighboring cardiac signals obtained from a patient;
eliminating, using the computing device, far-field activations from the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals using divergence criteria so that local activations are identified in the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals, the divergence criteria being associated at least with divergence among the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals; and
constructing, using the computing device, a clinical representation of the local activations in the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals.

Abstract
An example method of representing cardiac information associated with a heart rhythm disorder includes accessing a plurality of neighboring cardiac signals obtained from a patient. The method also includes eliminating far-field activations from the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals using one or more divergence criteria that define local activations in the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals, the divergence criteria being associated with divergence among the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals. The method further includes constructing a clinical representation of local activations in the plurality of neighboring cardiac signals.
