Quantification of shock-induced microscopic virtual electrodes assessed by subcellular resolution optical potential mapping in guinea pig papillary muscle.

INTRODUCTION: The primary objective of this study was the quantitative description of shock-induced, locally occurring virtual electrodes in natural cardiac tissue. METHODS AND RESULTS: Multiscale optical potential mapping using 10x, 20x, and 40x magnifying objectives, achieving resolutions of 0.13,...
