Abstract
This work presents theoretical and experimental results of the research concerning the design and characteristics of a 1st and 2nd order SQUID gradiometer with electronic subtraction. The SQUID biogradiometer was used for recording the magnetic field of the heart in laboratory conditions. The MCG signal was recording using a complex installation composed from a non ferromagnetic shielded room, a large triaxial Helmholtz coil system and the SQUID gradiometer reconfigured from a triaxial sensor in a three 1st order and one 2nd order gradiometer. The MCG signal and its characteristics is presented.
