Magnetocardiography

ID: magnetocardiography

Magnetocardiography (MCG) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique used to measure the magnetic fields produced by the electrical activity of the heart. This technique is analogous to electrocardiography (ECG), which records the electrical signals. However, while ECG measures the electric potentials at the skin's surface, MCG detects the magnetic fields that these potentials generate.
