Effect of Torso Shape and Heart Location in the Chest on Formation of Cardiac Electric Potentials on Body Surface in Dogs

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine volume 140, pages 165–167 (2005)Cite this article

Abstract

Experimental and theoretical methods were employed to study the effects of torso shape and heart orientation in the thoracic cavity on peculiarities of the formation cardiac electric field on the body surface in dogs. It was found that heart orientation to a greater extent than torso shape affected projections of cardiac electric potentials from the epicardium onto the body surface.
