Abstract: A system is provided for generating and displaying a sequence of three-dimensional (3D) graphics that illustrate motion of the heart over a cardiac cycle. The system generates a start heart wall mesh and an end heart wall mesh that represent a start geometry and an end geometry of a heart wall derived from a start 3D image and an end 3D image. The system then generates one or more an intermediate heart wall 3D meshes based on an intermediate geometry of the heart wall. An intermediate geometry is interpolated based on the start geometry and the end geometry factoring a start time of a start heart wall mesh, an end time of the end heart wall mesh, and an intermediate time for the intermediate heart wall mesh. The system then displays in sequence representations the heart wall 3D meshes to illustrate the motion.

Abstract: A system is described for generating a revascularization score for a blockage of a coronary artery in a heart. The system accesses indications of viability of myocardial tissue in the heart, a blockage state of the blockage that includes a blockage location and a blockage amount, and the perfusion territory of the myocardial tissue. Based on the myocardial tissue state, blockage state, and perfusion territory, the system generates a revascularization score for the blockage. The system generates a graphic of the heart that illustrates coronary arteries, myocardial tissue state, blockage state, and the revascularization score. The system displays the graphic to provide a visual representation of the revascularization score for the blockage of the coronary artery.

Abstract: A system is provided for generating an ablation plan for an ablation procedure to be performed on a body part of a patient having an abnormal pattern of electrical activity. The system receives patient data that includes a patient cardiogram, a patient body part image; and patient health data. The system employs an ablation target system to identify an ablation target within the body part based on at least some of the patient data. The system also employs an ablation plan system to identify, based on at least some of the patient data and the ablation target, an ablation plan that includes target parameter values for ablation device parameters for controlling an ablation device. The ablation plan system is developed based on data that includes data sets with patient data associated with an ablation plan. The system then outputs an indication of the ablation target and the ablation plan.

Abstract: In alternative embodiments, provided are compositions, medical devices or products of manufacture, systems, diagnostic tools, and methods, including computer implemented methods, for predicting the response of patients with dyssynchronous heart failure (DHF) to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), comprising: measuring or determining the fraction of the LV/septum performing negative work (MNW); and measuring or determining the coefficient of variation of external work density (COVW), wherein the MNW fraction performing negative work and coefficient of variation COVW (sd/mean) correlated strongly with observed reduction in end-systolic volume after CRT.

Abstract: A method may include identifying a simulated three-dimensional representation corresponding to an internal anatomy of a subject based on a match between a computed two-dimensional image corresponding to the simulated three-dimensional representation and a two-dimensional image depicting the internal anatomy of the subject. Simulations of the electrical activities measured by a recording device with standard lead placement and nonstandard lead placement may be computed based on the simulated three-dimensional representation. A clinical electrogram and/or a clinical vectorgram for the subject may be corrected based on a difference between the simulations of electrical activities to account for deviations arising from patient-specific lead placement as well as variations in subject anatomy and pathophysiology.

Abstract: A non-invasive method for cardiac arrhythmia risk stratification may include identifying, based at least on an electrical recording of a patient, a cardiac depolarization simulation and a cardiac repolarization simulation corresponding to an electrical recording of a patient. One or more regions of increased spatial repolarization gradient in which a first area of a myocardium of the patient exhibits a first repolarization rate that differs from a second repolarization rate of a second area of the myocardium by an amount then divided by the spatial distance between the two regions, by a threshold value may be determined based on the cardiac depolarization simulation and the cardiac repolarization simulation. A risk of cardiac arrhythmia for the patient may be determined based a magnitude of the increased spatial repolarization gradient. Moreover, a treatment plan for the patient may be determined based on the magnitude and/or location of the increased spatial repolarization gradient.
