Novel 3-D electrocardiographic imaging modality uses noninvasive body surface measurements
Published in Medical Devices and Surgical Technology Week, January 15th, 2006
"Imaging the myocardial activation sequence is critical for improved diagnosis and treatment of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias," cardiologists in the United States explained. "It is desirable to reveal the underlying cardiac electrical activity throughout the 3-dimensional (3-D) myocardium (rather than just the endocardial or epicardial surface) from noninvasive body surface potential measurements."
In a study conducted by X. Zhang and coauthors at the University of Minnesota, a "new 3-D electrocardiographic imaging technique (3-DEIT) based on...
