Usefulness of Time-Integral Analysis of Body Surface Potential Maps

  • Chapter
Electrocardiographic Body Surface Mapping

Part of the book series: Developments in Cardiovascular Medicine ((DICM,volume 60))

Abstract

Clinical investigations indicate that body surface potential maps (BSPM) provide diagnostic information undetectable by the conventional electrocardiographic leads in various heart conditions (1–6).
