Magnetocardiography (MCG) is a technique used to measure the magnetic fields produced by electrical activity in the heart.
Historically, the difficulties associated with implementing an MCG system have severely limited the number of applications in use today. CardioFlux has overcome these barriers of the past, and is poised to be easily integrated into clinical workflows.

Here are three areas where MCG has been and continues to be studied:
Direct diagnosis of heart function after myocardial infarction (MI) and surgery of heart transplantation.1

On-going monitoring of patients with heart surgical intervention: Patients with a stent or who underwent a balloon dilatation; post bypass patients; post heart transplantation patients.2
Learn more →
Detect the cardiac signal of an unborn child starting from the 16th week of pregnancy.3

Our research roadmap builds on decades of research into MCG with a focus on going from scientific exploration to clinical application.
