Abstract :
A two-dimensional model is used to complement the analysis of experimental results recorded from cardiac preparations with high resolution mapping systems at a microscopic size scale. This includes field stimulation experiments of isolated cardiomyocytes observed with a fast optical mapping system and propagation measurements on multicellular preparations recorded with a recently developed high density microelectrode array
