Figure 10From: A simulation study of the reaction of human heart to biphasic electrical shocksThe temporal evolution of the electrical behavior of a 3D model of the human myocardium, which contains cleavage planes, stimulated with (± 0.2 V, ± 0.1 V) biphasic exponentially decaying electrical signal is shown. Ring electrodes were used. For an easier visualization of the variation of V m along the axis of interest (z axis, measured in voxels) a slice of the cardiac tissue (middle of y axis) is presented. Because of symmetry reasons all the planes intersecting the y axis give the same information. The cardiac behavior at certain moments (A) 10 ms, B) 40 ms, C) 85 ms, D) 430 ms) after the electrical stimulation is reflected.Back to article page
