The Strength-Interval Curve in Cardiac Tissue

Figure 1

The isopotential contours for the transmembrane potential induced in a two-dimensional sheet of tissue by a unipolar extracellular electrode, located at the origin. Only one quadrant of the sheet is shown. The fibers are along the -axis. Contours are drawn every 10 mV. The contours near the electrode are closely spaced and are not shown [7].
