This invention is systems and methods to examine heart tissue morphology using three or more spaced electrodes (38), at least two of which. are located within the heart in contact with endocardial tissue. The systems and methods transmit electrical current through a region of heart tissue lying between selected pairs of electrodes (224), at least one of the electrodes in each pair being located within the heart. The systems and methods derive the electrical characteristic of tissue between the electrode pairs (206) based, at least in part, upon sensing tissue impedances.

Systèmes et procédés d'examen de la morphologie de tissus cardiaques à l'aide de trois électrodes (38) séparées ou plus, dont deux au moins sont situées à l'intérieur du coeur en contact avec les tissus de l'endocarde. Les systèmes et procédés de la présente invention permettent la transmission de courant électrique à travers une région de tissu cardiaque se trouvant entre des paires sélectionnées d'électrodes (224), au moins une des électrodes de chaque paire étant située à l'intérieur du coeur. Ils permettent ensuite de déduire la caractéristique électrique de tissus se trouvant entre les paires d'électrodes (206), au moins en partie sur la base de la détection des impédances des tissus.
