Figure 5

Comparison of filtered simulated IEGMs above healthy myocardium and above an acute point-shaped ablation lesion for orthogonal (a) and parallel (b) catheter orientation. Distal: UEGM of distal ablation electrode; ME1: UEGM of ME1; ME2: UEGM of ME2; ME3: UEGM of ME3; ME1-ME2: BEGM of ME1 and ME2; Distal-ME1: BEGM of distal ablation electrode and ME1; and Distal-ME2: BEGM of distal ablation electrode and ME2.
