Basket-Type Catheters: Diagnostic Pitfalls Caused by Deformation and Limited Coverage

Figure 4

Deformation of a simulated BC. (a) The simulated 48 mm basket was inserted in an MRI-based anatomical model and adapted to the virtual anatomy by the algorithm. (b) Comparison to a clinically observed BC position. Slight deformation and bending of all splines could be observed in both cases.
