Quantification of not-dipolar components of atrial depolarization by principal component analysis of the P-wave

BACKGROUND: Principal component analysis (PCA) of the T-wave has been demonstrated to quantify the dipolar and not-dipolar components of the ventricular activation, the latter reflecting repolarization heterogeneity. Accordingly, the PCA of the P-wave could help in analyzing the heterogeneous propag...
