Generating Simulated Anatomies Of An Electromagnetic Source

Systems are provided for generating data representing electromagnetic states of a heart for medical, scientific, research, and/or engineering purposes. The systems generate the data based on source configurations such as dimensions of, and scar or fibrosis or pro-arrhythmic substrate location within, a heart and a computational model of the electromagnetic output of the heart. The systems may dynamically generate the source configurations to provide representative source configurations that may be found in a population. For each source configuration of the electromagnetic source, the systems run a simulation of the functioning of the heart to generate modeled electromagnetic output (e.g., an electromagnetic mesh for each simulation step with a voltage at each point of the electromagnetic mesh) for that source configuration. The systems may generate a cardiogram for each source configuration from the modeled electromagnetic output of that source configuration for use in predicting the source location of an arrhythmia.

2 Independent Claims

1. A method performed by a computing system for generating a simulated anatomy of an electromagnetic source within a body, the generating comprising: accessing seed anatomies of the electromagnetic source, each seed anatomy having a seed value for each of a plurality of anatomical parameters of the electromagnetic source; accessing a set of weights that includes a weight for each seed anatomy; and for each of the anatomical parameters, generating a simulated value for that anatomical parameter by combining the seed values for that anatomical parameter, factoring in the weights of the seed anatomies.
8. A computing system for generating simulated anatomies of a heart, the computing system comprising: one or more computer-readable storage mediums storing: seed anatomies of a heart, each seed anatomy having a seed value for each of a plurality of anatomical parameters of a heart; and sets of weights that each includes a weight for each seed anatomy; and computer-executable instructions for controlling the computing system to, for each set of weights and for each of the anatomical parameters for that set of weights, generate a simulated value for that anatomical parameter by combining the seed values for that anatomical parameter, factoring in the weights of the seed anatomies; and one or more processors for executing the computer-executable instructions stored in the one or more computer-readable storage mediums.
