Abstract
A method includes, using a processor, identifying a septum and a Left Atrium Appendage (LAA) of a heart of a patient in an anatomical map of at least part of the heart. An entry surface over which a medical device is defined on the anatomical map, which is to be delivered via a sheath that penetrates the septum, is to engage with the LAA. A normal to the entry surface is calculated. A plurality of curves is calculated that each (i) have one end that is tangent to the normal, (ii) have a second end touching the septum, and (iii) comply with specified mechanical properties of the sheath. Multiple candidate locations on the septum are derived from the curves, for transseptal puncture with the sheath. The multiple candidate locations are presented to a user.
