ELECTROPHYSIOLOGIC (EP) STUDIES
• assess cardiac electrical system
• diagnosis and therapy of EP disorders
• catheter guidance:
 X-ray fluoroscopic imaging
disadvantages:
 x-ray exposure (staff + patient)
 poor tissue contrast
 alternative imaging modalities:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(MRI)

OBJECTIVES
establish experimental setup for simulating MHD signal with
common clinical EP-devices
 characterization of measured MHD-signal Umeas (bipolar):
 magnetic field strength
 electrode distance
 filter settings of recording modality
 comparison of Umeas with UMRI,calc from MR flow measurements

implementation of methods to remove MHD signals from
intracardiac ECG signal (iEGMs)

DISCUSSION & OUTLOOK
 experimental setup established successfully
 MHD potential (bipolar measured) was characterized:
• shows linear dependency on B0, d
• follows characteristics of velocity pattern
• same order of magnitude as intracardiac signals1
 MR flow data - post processing:
• MHD signal reconstructed using MR velocity data
• measured and calculated MHD signal agree very well
Outlook
iEGM data correction based on MR flow measurements
