title: Magnetocardiography in normal subjects and in patients with right bundle branch block.
abstract: The initial results of a magnetocardiographic study comparing normal subjects to patients with right bundle branch block due to Chagas' and other diseases is presented. A quantitative criterion to discriminate normal healthy individuals from patients was proposed based on the amplitude of R and S waves detected by the magnetocardiogram.
