System and method for visualizing electrophysiology data

A method for visualization of electrophysiology information sensed by electrodes on a catheter, comprising:

• positioning the electrodes on the catheter in contact with cardiac tissue at a plurality of locations;
• recording times of electrode signal acquisitions;
• identifying the electrodes with signal acquisition;
• designating a reference electrode signal acquisition;
• assigning a relative time to each recorded time of electrode signal acquisition relative to the reference electrode signal acquisition;
• correlating assigned relative times to identified electrodes to generate a sequence of electrode signal acquisitions;
• generating a visual representation on a display with a plurality of separate images shown in series to represent a progression of the sequence of electrode signal acquisitions, each of the plurality of images including a graphical image of the electrodes, wherein individual electrodes are visually marked to represent the sequence of electrode signal acquisitions;
• and
• generating a map of the electrode signal acquisitions relative to the cardiac tissue and/or energizing ablation electrodes to ablate the cardiac tissue at selected locations to alter conductivity of the cardiac tissue.
