Vectorballistocardiogram

A vectorballistocardiogram is a type of electrocardiogram that records the electrical activity of the heart using several electrodes placed on the chest in different directions.

A vectorballistocardiogram differs from a regular ECG in that it records not scalar, but vector quantities - the direction and strength of the electrical currents of the heart. This allows a more accurate assessment of the work of various parts of the myocardium.

To register a vector ballistocardiogram, three orthogonal (mutually perpendicular) leads are used: in the frontal, horizontal and sagittal planes. Recording in a three-dimensional coordinate system reflects the electrical vector of the heart in dynamics.

Analysis of the vectorballistocardiogram allows us to identify conduction disturbances and localization of myocardial lesions. This method is widely used in cardiology to diagnose various heart diseases.



Currently, there are many methods for studying the heart using various instruments. A blood vector ballistogram is one of the methods that allows you to obtain more detailed information about the work of the heart. This method was developed in the 20th century and is now actively used in medicine and biology. The article will be written in the form of a scientific article. I can use these definitions when writing.
