A method of determining a candidate ablation location using historical ablation data includes generating a database including a plurality of ablation records, and generating a set of probability parameters describing each ablation record. The method also includes developing an algorithm based upon the probability parameters for the ablation records. For a candidate ablation procedure, the method includes receiving patient parameters associated with a patient receiving the candidate ablation procedure, and determining at least one candidate condition associated with the patient and a respective probability associated with each candidate condition. The method further includes applying the algorithm to determine at least one candidate ablation location based upon the respective probabilities associated with the at least one candidate condition, and displaying the at least one candidate ablation location on a visual interface of a cardiac mapping system. |
