Abstract :
A mathematical/computer model of cardiac tissue was developed to examine the relationship between the form of the T-wave of electrograms recorded on the surface of the atrium and local recovery time. The model takes into account the complex structure of cardiac tissue and the dynamics of the cardiac action potential
