Abstract

A method for examination of heart/arteries to obtain information in form of measurement results as a basis for exact diagnosis, where electrodes are placed on suitable areas of the body to provide signals, and where, by signal processing, a three-dimensional ECG vector cardiogram is obtained, which is illustrated by a three-dimensional picture of the heart. According to the invention, sound from--say--three places over a period of time is registered, as the signal fluctuations which are synchronized with the heartbeats are calculated, so that sounds from other sources i.e. intestines, lungs are eliminated. The heart's arteries electromagnetic movements are illustrated in order to visualize its pathology. The instrument comprises preferably three or more microphones in addition to poles for electromagnetic registration, attached to a preferably battery operated converter, arranged to receive pulses and send on signals to a computer, the computer being programmed to--on the basis of the different part-diversions--calculate and screen a three-dimensional picture of the depolarization (the electromagnetic movement in the heart).
