Abstract
An exemplary method includes providing a mechanical activation time (MA time) for a myocardial location, the location defined at least in part by an electrode and the mechanical activation time determined at least in part by movement of the electrode; providing an electrical activation time (EA time) for the myocardial location; and determining an electromechanical delay (EMD) for the myocardial location based on the difference between the mechanical activation time (MA time) and the electrical activation time (EA time).
