You will improve your knowledge about our innovative young company and the revolutionary application of Squid-technology (Super conducting QUantum Interference Device) for the analysis of biomagnetism, especially
in the field of noninvasive functional heart examination.
Cardiovascular diseases and its most severe form, the myocardial infarction, are the predominant factors of
the mortality rate in the developed countries. As some may think this resort of medicine is an already well explained one, they are partly wrong.
Here are the facts:
“Merely fifty percent of myocardial infarction can be explained by the typical known risk factors, such
as coronary artery disease (CAD), nicotinism, high levels of the LDL fraction of cholesterol, hypertension, adiposity and many others.”
from: Schaper, Wolfgang (2000): Ischämie und Herzinfarkt, pathophysiologische Grundlagen, 102-103, In: Schaefer, H. et al.: Herzinfarkt-Report 2000, Urban
& Fischer
What about the other cases?
How do you know if you are at risk?
Magnetocardiography opens up new dimensions in cardiology. With this technique you have an easy and reliable diagnostic tool to check your risks and even quantify them. Therefore it will be a lot easier and faster to develop your personal regimen. The method is excellent to monitor heart function after interventional heart therapy and cardiac surgery.
NEW: Phantom measurements from the labs of SQUID International AG demonstrate power of magnetocardiography in healthy people.
