Atrial Fibrillation Model

Abstract

The aim of this thesis is to create a basic 2D electroanatomic model of a heart atria andperform an atrial fibrillation on this model. Model development and simulations are performed inCOMSOL Multiphysics. Depolarization wave propagation is simulated by using FitzHugh-Nagumo model. A representation of the pathology is obtained by parameter modulation of thismodel. The achieved results can be used later to predict the locations of different pathologies inheart which should improve diagnostics and hopefully shorten the duration of operations.
