The fundamental concept of electroanatomic mapping systems is to localize catheters within the heart in three dimensional space (a sort of "GPS" within the heart). Building a 3-D model of the heart with real-time visualization permits reduction in fluoroscopy use. In addition to 3-D structure, the voltage and timing of signals at each point of ...
