Disclosed herein is a biomagnetic measurement apparatus capable of
visualizing cardiac electrical current distributions with information on
the cardiac morphology of a subject. A magnetic field component in the z
direction, vertical to the chest surface of a subject, is measured from
two directions, front and back of the chest, and then to calculate the
current distributions in the two directions and the distributions of the
amplitudes of those current distributions. A three-dimensional standard
heart model is created from average data on the cardiac morphology
obtained from plural healthy subjects. An optimal position of the model
is determined using the coordinates of the sinus node and the coordinates
of the left ventricle. Then, a weight coefficient is obtained by front
and back current distributions and front and back the distributions of
the amplitudes of those current distributions on a set boundary of the
model.
