Abstract :
A microwave technique for recording apexcardiograms is reported. The technique is based on detecting changes in the reflected microwaves caused by movement of the chest wall in response to left-ventricle activity. Results show that microwave technique is useful for delineating the fine structures in the precordial movement.
