Noninvasive recording of his potential using magnetocardiograms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study investigated whether magnetocardiograms (MCGs) could noninvasively detect the His potential. In 22 patients, the His - ventricular (HV) intervals in MCGs (64-channel system, 2-min signal averaging, filter: 0.1-100 Hz, and band-eliminating filter of 50 Hz) were compared with those recorded in an electrophysiologic study (EPS, filter: 30-400 Hz). In 14 of the patients (64 %), the His potential was recorded in the MCGs. There was a correlation between the HV intervals in the MCGs and those in the EPS (R = 0.81, p<0.01). This study indicates that MCGs can be used to investigate the specialized conduction systems for which EPS is currently used.

Noninvasive diagnosis of partial atrial standstill using magnetocardiograms.
A 59-year-old woman with partial atrial standstill was studied using magnetocardiograms (MCGs), which revealed through QRS-T subtraction and time-frequency analysis that there was a high-frequency (6 Hz) magnetic source at the low atrial septum. MCGs are useful for noninvasively evaluating the clinical course of patients with atrial fibrillation.
متن کاملAnalysis of more complex arrhythmias using the tangential components of the cardiac magnetic field
Patients with left ventricular dysfunction are at high risk for sudden death due to ventricular tachyarrhythmias. It is one of the most important issue how to detect high-risk patients and prevent sudden death. An invasive procedure, electrophysiologic study (EPS), is a “gold standard” in the diagnosis of arrhythmia. Although EPS-guided therapy had been expected to be better than empiric therap...
متن کاملNoninvasive, direct visualization of macro-reentrant circuits by using magnetocardiograms: initiation and persistence of atrial flutter.
AIMS We analysed the cardiac magnetic fields on the body surface to visualize electrical currents noninvasively during reentrant arrhythmias. METHODS AND RESULTS Seven patients with counterclockwise atrial flutter (AFL) were studied during 17 episodes of AFL using 64-channel magnetocardiograms (MCGs) and electrophysiological study. Eight of the episodes were paroxysmal AFL, in which MCGs were...
