Apparatus and method for locating electrically active sites within an animal

摘要

An apparatus for locating an electrically active site within an organ or other internal body structure has a number of electrical activity sensors positionable proximate a wall of the organ or internal body structure and relatively locatable. Each sensor produces an output indicative of the arrival of an electrical signal from the active site and a signal processing unit to utilize the series of outputs to determine, by triangulation, the location of the active site.
