Current biophysical atrial models for investigating atrial fibrillation (AF) mechanisms and treatment approaches use imaging data to define patient-specific anatomy. Electrophysiology of the models can be calibrated using invasive electrical data collected using electroanatomic mapping (EAM) systems. However, these EAM data are typically only available after the catheter ablation procedure has begun, which makes it challenging to use personalised biophysical simulations for informing procedures. In this study, we first aimed to derive a mapping between LGE-MRI intensity and EAM conduction velocity (CV) for calibrating patient-specific left atrial electrophysiology models. Second, we investigated the functional effects of this calibration on simulated arrhythmia properties. To achieve this, we used the Universal Atrial Coordinate (UAC) system to register LGE-MRI and EAM meshes for ten patients. We then post-processed these data to investigate the relationship between LGE-MRI intensities and EAM CV. Mean atrial CV decreased from 0.81 ± 0.31 m/s to 0.58 ± 0.18 m/s as LGE-MRI image intensity ratio (IIR) increased from IIR < 0.9 to 1.6 ≤ IIR. The relationship between IIR and CV was used to calibrate conductivity for a cohort of 50 patient-specific models constructed from LGE-MRI data. This calibration increased the mean number of phase singularities during simulated arrhythmia from 2.67 ± 0.94 to 5.15 ± 2.60.
