First-order SQUID gradiometer with electronic subtraction for magnetocardiography

Abstract: The paper presents theoretical and experimental results of the research concerning the design and properties of a 1 st -order SQUID gradiometer with electronic subtraction and the recording of the first magnetocardiogram (MCG) performed in Romania, at the Bioelectromagnetism Laboratory of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering. The MCG recording was possible by using a complex installation composed from a non ferromagnetic shielded room placed in the centre of the large (4 x 4 x 4) m, triaxial Helmholtz coils s… Show more

“…Magnetocardiography (MCG) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] is a noninvasive, noncontact technique, for measuring the magnetic field associated with the electrical activity of the heart using superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs), which have unparalleled sensitivity for the detection of extremely weak magnetic fields. The MCG offers many advantages over conventionally used electrocardiography (ECG), as the measurement carried out using MCG is noncontact and is less sensitive to the variations of the electrical conductivity of the intervening tissues.…”
