Spatiotemporal Organization of Electromechanical Phase Singularities during High-Frequency Cardiac Arrhythmias
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a life-threatening electromechanical dysfunction of the heart associated with complex spatiotemporal dynamics of electrical excitation and mechanical contraction of the heart muscle. It has been hypothesized that VF is driven by three-dimensional rotating electrical...
