Localisation of myocardial ischaemia from the magnetocardiogram using current density reconstruction method: computer simulation study.

A computer simulation study is performed to investigate the method of current density reconstruction to localise myocardial ischaemia. A computer model of the entire human heart is used to simulate the excitation and repolarisation process in eight topographically different cases of myocardial ischaemia. The associated magnetocardiogram is calculated at 37 positions of the KRENIKON biomagnetic measurement equipment.
