title: [Comparison of the data from electrocardiotopography and morphological research on the heart in myocardial infarct].
abstract: Diagnostic value of electrocardiotopography (ECTG) is assessed for different sites of myocardial infarction by means of comparison of postmortem morphologic findings in the hearts of 53 diseased patients with their intravital ECTG data. ECTGs were recorded from 80-100 electrodes applied between the first and tenth intercostal space around the body. ECTG gave an accurate topic structure of MI and cicatricial changes in 49 of 53 patients, while ECG from 12 leads was accurate in 25 patients only. The significance of ECTG for the diagnosis of posterior- and inferior-wall left-ventricular MI is demonstrated. Advantages of this ECTG system are explained, as compared to ECG from 35 anterolateral chest leads. No specific electrocardiotopographic features of right-ventricular MI were identified.
