Evaluation of T-wave alternans in high-resolution ECG maps recorded during the stress test in patients after myocardial infarction

Introduction Recent studies point to analysis of T-wave alternans as a promising indicator of an increased risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. In this study the occurrence of T-wave alternans in the high-resolution ECGs recorded during the exercise stress test and scintigraphic tests (SPECT) in patients with ischemic heart disease was examined.
