Abstract
A method for calculating values indicative for the local spatial structure of conducting properties of heart muscle tissue. The method uses a continuous ROI where there may exist a CC, each point of the ROI being associated with a value of a given spatial distribution. The method for each one of the points: spans rays within the ROI in multiple 3-D directions using coordinates of a reference coordinate system of each point, providing a structure with a plurality of rays with a given geometry; defines a sequence of sampling points on each ray of said structure; maps the value of the spatial distribution on each defined sampling point of each ray of the structure; classifies each ray of the structure by assigning a single value, providing an associated ray value; and reduces each structure to a single point value in view of said geometry and their associated ray value.
