Conduction in the Heart Wall: Helicoidal Fibers Minimize Diffusion Bias
Abstract The mammalian heart must function as an efficient pump while simultaneously conducting electrical signals to drive the contraction process. In the ventricles, electrical activation begins at the insertion points of the Purkinje network in the endocardium. How does the diffusion component of...
