Patent ID: 8036734

Claim:
A method for determining a cardiac impulse conduction in a patient, comprising: arranging a plurality of electrocardiogram electrodes on a body of the patient; generating an image recording of an area of the body of the patient by an imaging modality capturing at least partially the electrocardiogram electrodes; determining positions of the electrocardiogram electrodes captured in the image recording based on the imaging recording in a system of coordinates assigned to the imaging modality; recording potential data of some of the electrocardiogram electrodes captured in the image recording; reconstructing the cardiac impulse conduction depending on the positions of the electrocardiogram electrodes, the image recording and the potential data of the electrocardiogram electrodes; and displaying the reconstructed cardiac impulse conduction together with the image recording by color, wherein the electrocardiogram electrodes are each provided with at least one marking, and wherein the at least one marking is different from one another for each of the electrocardiogram electrodes.
