A noninvasive perspective of electrophysiologic testing. 1986

J Morganroth

In this article, the author addresses the comparison between non-invasive and invasive approaches to detect and follow treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. Four major areas are discussed: determination of the mechanism of arrhythmias, arrhythmia diagnosis, defining the patient's risk from arrhythmia, and selection of therapy.
