Abstract
A myocardial excitation determining apparatus which can support the determination of excitation dynamics of the myocardium during atrial fibrillation is provided. A myocardial excitation determining apparatus has: an acquiring sectionwhich acquires an intracardiac electrocardiogram of a subject; a processing sectionwhich computes to produce visualized data indicating a state of excitation in the myocardium, based on the intracardiac electrocardiogram; and a determining sectionwhich determines the type of excitation dynamics of the myocardium based on the visualized data.
