ECGSIM

ECGSIM is an interactive simulation program that enables one to study the relationship between the electric activity of the ventricular myocardium and the resulting potentials on the thorax: QRST wave forms as well as body surface potential maps.
It is intended to serve as a research tool for those interested in testing any hypothesis they may have regarding the manifestation of cardiac malfunctioning in the electrocardiographic wave forms on the thorax.
Another objective is for it to serve as a teaching tool, to be used for students of the basic aspects of the genesis of the electrocardiogram.
