Body Surface ECG Mapping
The time-varying electropotential field (red: positive; blue: negative potentials), which is displayed on an anatomically accurate torso surface (left: anterior view; right: posterior view; top: neck; bottom: abdomen) during QRS of a single normal beat.
Protocols:
Ventricular epicardial pacing.
Regional ventricular ischaemia.
