Abstract
En 中文
The resolution of the inverse problem of electrocardiography represents a major interest in the diagnosis and catheter-based therapy of cardiac arrhythmia. In this context, the ability to simulate several cardiac electrical behaviors was crucial for evaluating and comparing the performance of inversion methods. For this application, existing models are either too complex or do not produce realistic cardiac patterns. In this work, a low-resolution heart-torso model generating realistic whole heart cardiac mappings and electrocardiograms in healthy and pathological cases is designed. This model was built upon a simplified heart-torso geometry and implements the monodomain formalism by using the finite element method. In addition, a model reduction step through a sensitivity analysis was proposed where parameters were identified using an evolutionary optimization approach. Finally, the study illustrates the usefulness of the proposed model by comparing the performance of different variants of Tikhonov-based inversion methods for the determination of the regularization parameter in healthy, ischemic and ventricular tachycardia scenarios. First, results of the sensitivity analysis show that among 58 parameters only 25 are influent. Note also that the level of influence of the parameters depends on the heart region. Besides, the synthesized electrocardiograms globally present the same characteristic shape compared to the reference once with a correlation value that reaches 88%. Regarding inverse problem, results highlight that only Robust Generalized Cross Validation and Discrepancy Principle provide best performance, with a quasi-perfect success rate for both, and a respective relative error, between the generated electrocardiograms to the reference one, of 0.75 and 0.62.
