Measurements of cardiomagnetic fields and localization of the sources

This patent describes a the localization of cardiomagnetic field sources represents one of the most important problems in magnetocardiography. Thereby, the choice of a suitable model is decisive: the model should accurately represent the real torso and should be realizable on existing computers. The most commonly accepted model for the volume conductor is the conducting half-space and the model which we used in making our analysis. The source model used by us is based on the multipole theory up to the current multipole
