ABSTRACT:
A constant current having high frequency and a known small current value is flown by a current supplying electrode portion (20) through a chest of a living body, variations of impedance at respective positions of the chest are detected by a voltage detector portion (30) and output as detected signals in relation to the respective positions of the chest and a mapping and display portion 40 performs a signal processing on the basis of the detected signals and produces a map corresponding thereto and displays it in a two dimensional plane. Therefore, it is possible to monitor hemodynamics in a wide area of the living body in two dimensional coordinates.
