Abstract
We have combined the ability to monitor intracellular calcium in an isolated cardiac cell using confocal scanning laser fluorescence microscopy with “coupling clamp” technique which allows action potential (AP) propagation from the real cell to a real-time simulation of a model cell. We found that discontinuous conduction increases the intracellular calcium (Ca2+) transient
