More Information
Summary:A method for displaying information includes receiving measurements, with respect to an invasive probe inside a body of a subject, of probe parameters consisting of a force exerted by the probe on tissue of the subject and temperatures measured by sensors of the probe; and responsively to the measurements, displaying in a single map on a display screen a graphical representation of a distribution of the temperatures in a vicinity of the probe and superimposing thereon a vector representation of the force, wherein the single map includes a color map based on an auto-adjust color scale. In some embodiments, the auto-adjust color scale includes a selected color that represents a maximum temperature equal to a maximum measured temperature increased by a predetermined number of degrees. In some embodiments, the auto-adjust color scale includes a selected color that represents a minimum temperature equal to a measured tissue temperature before ablation.
