Claim 12:
13. A system for generating a three-dimensional geometric model of a heart, comprising:
an imaging and modeling module configured to:
receive a plurality of two-dimensional image slices of the heart from an intracardiac echocardiography (“ICE”) catheter, wherein each image slice of the plurality of image slices is associated with localization information of the ICE catheter;
graphically output the plurality of two-dimensional image slices in a plurality of voxels according to the associated localization information of the ICE catheter, thereby creating a three-dimensional geometric model of the heart; and
graphically represent data sufficiency of the three-dimensional geometric model of the heart, wherein the imaging and modeling module is configure to graphically represent data sufficiency of the three-dimensional geometric model of the heart using one or more of voxel opacity, a one-dimensional illustration, and a two-dimensional illustration.
