We present a system for simultaneous recording of the electrocardiogram and the magnetocardiogram. The measurement system contained of printed carbon electrodes and SERF magnetometer. The use of this system confirms that the position of the end of the magnetic T wave extends further than the electric T wave, which is an important indicator for the diagnosis of cardiological patients and for drug arrhythmogenicity.

The multi-pass magnetometers are rapidly matched to the NQR frequencies, 531 kHz and 423 kHz, with the use of a single tuning field. For ease of implementation, a double resonant tank circuit was used for excitation, but could be replaced by a broad-band transmitter.

A highly maneuverable underwater glider, ROUGHIE, was customized to carry an increased payload and reduce the vehicle's magnetic signature. A sensor suite composed of a vector and scalar magnetometer was mounted in an external boom at the rear of the vehicle.
