Current density distribution maps threshold processing

Magnetocardiography is one of the most progressive tools for diagnosis and investigation of heart diseases, such as coronary heart disease. Noninvasiveness, contactlessness, high sensitivity makes magnetocardiography suitable for this purpose and comfortable in use for physician. In this paper analysis of myocardium current density distribution maps is proposed. Current density distribution map surface area dependence on time and intensity threshold is obtained.
