πŸ“£ EP Workbench (Beta) is now live!

We have now shipped our first packaged EP Workbench Beta Version, supported on Mac OS.

Within the coming weeks we will be releasing a distributable for Mac (Intel), Windows (7+) and Linux

🎈 What is EP Workbench?

EP Workbench is a Graphical interface to our open-source library OpenEP, allowing you to go beyond code-based analysis to a fully UI-based interactive experience.

Here are some of the features of EP Workbench:

  • Load your data from OpenEP, openCARP, CVI42 and vtk.
  • Visualise voltage, LAT, conduction velocity, etc. interpolated on your 3D model.
  • Analyse and re-annotate signal data.
  • Export your data for further analysis as OpenEP standard, openCARP or CSV.

… and a handful of additional tools, including mesh editor, region selection, combining mesh data etc.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» How to get your hands on EP Workbench?

Getting started with EP Workbench is very simple!

  • Accept the licence terms for EP Workbench beta version here
  • Download the DMG installer file
  • Read mapping data in OpenEP/OpenCARP/CVI42 format (optionally, convert from Carto export format using our carto2openep converter)

πŸ’₯ New features coming soon!

Here are some of the new features that will be coming to EP Workbench soon!

  • Parallel processing capabilities for estimation of computationally expensive calculations such as conduction velocity and divergence.
  • Histogram analysis tool, to provide quantitative analysis of mapping data directly within the user interface.
  • AI-driven data pre-processing to clean mapping data, and facilitating accelerated analysis

πŸ› οΈ Improvements to the software

Our team at The University of Edinburgh and Kings College London, are constantly working hard to develop and improve the software to make it more accessible to clinicians and researchers. As such there are still some known issues with the software that we are currently working on:

  • The mesh editor (β€œtools > mesh editor”) has been temporarily disabled due to incompatibility in updates of dependent libraries.
  • Slow performance when deleting or restoring mapping points, currently there are calculations happening in the background for the visualisation that may slow down deletion of points.
  • Multi-selection of mapping points; although multiselecting is enabled, the 3D Visualiser does not highlight the selected points from the table layout.

πŸ”¬We value your feedback:

Our beta release of the software is meant to push the boundaries of the software by being able to test it on different machines, with a large user base with different requirements.

As such, we would really appreciate any feedback on the performance or functionality of the software. Feel free to provide your feedback or queries in this forum.
