New Optical Mapping Design and Automated Algorithms for Cardiac Electrophysiology
Optical mapping is an important tool for assessment of cardiac electrophysiology. We demonstrate a new system for quantification and measurement of electrophysiological parameters in isolated cardiac tissue. The system makes use of voltage sensitive fluorescent dyes that shift in spectral property in response to millivolt changes in potential across cell membranes. Automated analysis of the pix...
متن کاملNovel mapping techniques for cardiac electrophysiology.
Because of its high success rate and low morbidity, radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has become first line treatment for many arrhythmias. In this procedure, one or more electrode catheters are advanced percutaneously through the vasculature to contact cardiac tissues. A diagnostic study is performed to define the arrhythmia mechanism, and subsequently an ablation catheter is positioned ad...
متن کاملAtrial electrophysiology in experimental hyperthyroidism in rabbits.
Male rabbits received Z-thyroxine (250 /xg/kg) subcutaneously for 7 days and exhibited marked tachycardia, elevation of protein-bound iodine levels and a 26$ mean weight loss. Their hearts were isolated and perfused by die Langendorff technique. In 8 thyroid-treated rabbits the mean heart rate before they were killed and also after 30 minutes of perfusion was much higher than that of 10 control...
متن کاملModelling of heterogeneous human atrial electrophysiology.
Investigation of the development of atrial fibrillation in-vivo is difficult as the occurrence is spontaneous and ECG signals of the atria are complex during fibrillation. In this study the model of Courtemanche et al. is parameterized such that it reproduces different action potential morphologies observed in mammal experiments. In 3D simulations on an anatomical atrial model the heterogeneous...
متن کاملDesign of Arrayed Waveguide Grating based Optical Switch for High Speed Optical Networks
This paper demonstrates the design of an Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWG) based optical switch. In the design both physical and network layer analysis is performed. The physical layer power and noise analysis is done to obtain Bit Error Rate (BER). This has been found that at the higher bit rates, BER is not affected with number of buffer modules. Network layer analysis is done to obtain perfor...
