Abstract :
We previously developed an electrophysiological heart simulator. However, it was tedious and time-consuming to create the heart models for the simulation. In this study, we newly developed the graphical interface for modeling an excitation map and setting up some physiological parameters. Utilizing our interface enables us to save the labor for repetitive simulation trials using the individual and modified ventricular models.
