A method of acquiring and mapping physiological data in a heart chamber includes inserting a catheter having an electrode into the heart chamber. Physiological data in the heart chamber is acquired with the electrode. The position of the electrode is determined, and the location of the acquired physiological data is determined using the position of the electrode. The acquired physiological data is integrated with the location of the acquired physiological data. Information related to the three-dimensional geometry of at least a portion of the heart chamber is received, and a continuous three-dimensional color-coded map of the physiological data is created and superimposed on a geometrical representation of the three-dimensional geometry information. The map is then utilized to deliver ablation therapy. |
