HIGH-SENSITIVITY IMAGING OF MAGNETIC FIELDS FROM CARDIAC APEX ACTION POTENTIAL PROPAGATION USING SUPERCONDUCTING QUANTUM INTERFERENCE DEVICE (SQUID) MICROSCOPY
In this dissertation, we explore the magnetic fields associated with action potential propagation in the spiral fiber structure of a rabbits cardiac apex. We use optical imaging, SQUID microscopy, monodomain and bidomain modeling to analyze the spiral effect on action potential propagation. We found...
