How can MCG provide better accuracy with 2 leads compared to a conventional 12-lead ECG?
The key to MCG’s accuracy is in the MCG analysis algorithms — MCG offers several advantages over a conventional ECG, notably: • The MCG Analysis expands the analog ECG signal into a series of mathematical functions, more closely representing the complexity of a living heart. • MCG analysis compares the results of the above functions to a clinically validated database containing thousands of patients, including healthy individuals and those with pathologies confirmed through conventional diagnostic modalities. The breadth of the MCG database exceeds the capacity of an individual clinician reviewing a conventional ECG. • The accuracy of the MCG analysis is not affected by most abnormalities in the resting ECG, arrhythmias, gender or age due to the nature of the analysis, which focuses on the relationship between two leads as opposed to the traditional method of analyzing complexes (P, QRS, S-T, etc.). • MCG views the ECG data in both the time domain (as a conventional ECG)and the frequen
