Abstract
A method for displaying information, including receiving measurements, with respect to an invasive probe inside a body of a subject, of probe parameters consisting of a force exerted by the probe on tissue of the subject and temperatures measured by sensors of the probe. The method further includes, responsively to the measurements, displaying in a single map on a display screen a graphical representation of a distribution of the temperatures in a vicinity of the probe and superimposing thereon a vector representation of the force.
Claims6
A computer-implemented method for displaying information, comprising:
- receiving, by a computer, measurements from a probe located inside a body of a subject, the measurements being probe parameters comprising a force exerted by the probe on tissue of the subject and temperatures measured by sensors of the probe;
- and
- responsively to the measurements, displaying in a single map on a display screen connected to the computer a graphical representation of a distribution of the temperatures in a vicinity of the probe with a vector representation of the force superimposed on the distribution of the temperatures.
