Abstract :
A multiprocessor real-time body surface potential mapping system is described which measures 40 simultaneous unipolar electrocardiograms and the clinical 12 lead system at 500 Hz with 12-b accuracy. Data can be stored on disk, one channel can be displayed continuously for monitoring, and one 40-channel frame at a selected instant in each cardiac cycle can be displayed in real time as an isopotential map
