ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for analyzing ECG signal data for diagnostic purposes by performing an incrementally moving, short window FFT analysis to produce a set of spectral templates representative of the spectral frequency content of the ECG at each window position. The spectral templates may be displayed as a representation of a three dimensional surface or mathematically analyzed. The changes in the shape of the templates or surface with time represent a change in the spectrum, which are shown to be an indication of abnormalities in the heart.
