Accurate diagnosis of ischemic heart disease without exposure to radiation using non-stress unshielded magnetocardiography.

Study Objectives: To evaluate the capability and accuracy of magnetocardiography (MCG) to identify patients with ischemic chest pain from those with non-ischemic pain and to verify normalcy in the MCG in healthy subjects.

Design: We studied 133 patients (mean age 59 ± 14 years, 69 % male) with chronic or acute chest pain syndrome and 63 healthy subjects (mean age 41.7 ± 12.

Magnetocardiography in the Evaluation of Sudden Cardiac Death Risk: A Systematic Review.

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is responsible for 15%-20% of deaths globally/year, predominantly due to ventricular arrhythmias (VA) caused by vulnerable cardiac substrate. Identifying those at risk has proved difficult with several limitations of current methods. We evaluated the evidence for magnetocardiography (MCG) in predicting SCD events.

Clinical magnetocardiography: the unshielded bet-past, present, and future.

Magnetocardiography (MCG), which is nowadays 60 years old, has not yet been fully accepted as a clinical tool. Nevertheless, a large body of research and several clinical trials have demonstrated its reliability in providing additional diagnostic electrophysiological information if compared with conventional non-invasive electrocardiographic methods. Since the beginning, one major objective difficulty has been the need to clean the weak cardiac magnetic signals from the much higher environmental noise, especially that of urban and hospital environments.

When Manual Analysis of 12-Lead ECG Holter Plays a Critical Role in Discovering Unknown Patterns of Increased Arrhythmogenic Risk: A Case Report of a Patient Treated with Tamoxifen and Subsequent Pneumonia in COVID-19.

Several medicines, including cancer therapies, are known to alter the electrophysiological function of ventricular myocytes resulting in abnormal prolongation and dispersion of ventricular repolarization (quantified by multi-lead QTc measurement). This effect could be amplified by other concomitant factors (e.g.
