Does magnetocardiography detect electrophysiological changes in patients with CAD following successful PCI?
Unshielded four-channel magnetocardiography can detect electrophysiological improvements during repolarization following successful PCI, suggesting its potential utility for noninvasive follow-up.
Hailer et al. (2005) studied this question.
