Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods and systems of a noninvasive technique for characterizing cardiac chamber size and cardiac mechanical function. A mathematical analysis of three-dimensional (3D) high resolution data may be used to estimate chamber size and cardiac mechanical function. For example, high-resolution mammalian signals are analyzed across multiple leads, as 3D orthogonal (X,Y,Z), or 10-channel data, for 30 to 800 seconds, to derive estimates of cardiac chamber size and cardiac mechanical function. Multiple mathematical approaches may be used to analyze the dynamical and geometrical properties of the data.
