[Magnito-, electro- and echocardiography in detecting symptoms of the "hypertensive heart"].

The study compared diagnostic potential of magnetocardiography (MCG), electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiography (echo-CG) in 18 patients with arterial hypertension (AH). 32 healthy males served as control. Elements of MCG from normal subjects have been analyzed morphologically in 36 points of precordial leads.

[The diagnostic potentials of magnetocardiography in the combined examination of patients with cardiomyopathies].

Diagnostic potential of magnetocardiography (MCG) was elucidated in comparison to ECG and echo-CG in 8 patients with cardiomyopathy (CMP) versus 28 healthy males. Elements of normal MCG curve were characterized in relation to incidence rate. Changes in MCG curve were considered with regard to hypertrophy of basal interventricular septum.
