  • Title: [Magnetocardiography. Biomagnetic localization of impulse development and transmission of the heart].
    Author: Moshage W, Achenbach S, Weikl A, Schneider S, Abraham-Fuchs K, Göhl K, Bachmann K.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1991 Oct 20; 109(30):599-600. PubMed ID: 1722187.
    Abstract:
    Magnetocardiography is a non-invasive biomagnetic technique for measuring magnetic fields produced at the surface of the body when the heart is stimulated to beat. The measurement is contact-free and is independent of tissue resistance. For the first time, magnetocardiography employing multi-channel systems permits the accurate, non-invasive localization of accessory conduction pathways and ectopic ventricular activity.
