ABSTRACT:
A computational model for simulating and predicting the electrical and chemical dynamics of the heart. The model consists of a computerized representation of heart anatomy and a system of mathematical equations that describe the spatio-temporal behavior of biophysical quantities such as voltage at various locations throughout the heart. The computer process can present the temporal evolution of the biophysical quantities throughout the computerized anatomical model.
