A system and method for graphically identifying candidate electrodes of a leadwire for stimulation of a patient anatomy includes a processor obtaining data corresponding to an anatomic region, identifying a spatial relationship between electrodes of the leadwire to the anatomic region, based on the identifying, selecting a subset of the electrodes of the leadwire, generating, based on the obtained data and the selected subset, a graphical output arrangement that includes a model of the leadwire including graphical representations of at least some of the electrodes and a graphical selection marking identifying the selected subset of the electrodes.
