Abstract

We present the use of CineECG in visualizing abnormal ventricular activation in a case of a complex conduction disorder. CineECG combines the standard 12‑lead surface ECG with a 3D anatomical model of the heart. It projects the location and direction of the average ventricular activation and recovery on the heart model over time. In this case, CineECG was able to visualize the different type of fascicular conduction in this progressive conduction block. This novel imaging technique was able to provide additional insight in this complex case, and might be of use in other complex ECG patterns.
