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. In left ventricular hypertrophy MCG showed shifts corresponding to the degree of ventricular dilation. MCG diagnostic opportunities are shown in detection of right ventricular hypertrophy in the presence of the right His bundle blockade in patients with dilated CMP.
