An imaging system for use in medical intervention procedure planning
includes a medical scanner system for generating a volume of cardiac
image data, a data acquisition system for acquiring the volume of cardiac
image data, an image generation system for generating a viewable image
from the volume of cardiac image data, a database for storing information
from the data acquisition and image generation systems, an operator
interface system for managing the medical scanner system, the data
acquisition system, the image generation system, and the database, and a
post-processing system for analyzing the volume of cardiac image data,
displaying the viewable image and being responsive to the operator
interface system. The operator interface system includes instructions for
using the volume of cardiac image data and the viewable image for
bi-ventricular pacing planning, atrial fibrillation procedure planning,
or atrial flutter procedure planning.
