  • Abstract
    The performance of an electrical imaging procedure for the heart ideally needs to be validated against invasive electrical recordings made directly on the heart. We report an experimental and modelling program that is working towards obtaining the necessary in-vivo data required for model validation. We also present results illustrating the performance of a recently published activation imaging algorithm using some of the data obtained to date
