Sažetak
The aim of this study is to develop a new, computationally-efficient, anatomically- realistic 3D bidomain cardiac electrical activity model using widely available software and standard low-cost hardware. The model incorporates whole-heart embedded in a human torso, spontaneous activation of sinoatrial node and specialized conduction system with heterogeneous action potential morphologies. The model is capable of generating realistic body surface electrocardiograms (ECGs) and is proposed as a useful tool for investigating some major issues in heart pathophysiology and in stimulation ; such as simulating and optimizing synchronized electrical cardioversion, defibrillation and pacing stimulation.
