Abstract

ectorcardiogram (VCG) has been repeatedly found useful for clinical investigations. It may not substitute but complement Standard 12-Lead (S12) ECG. There was tremendous research between 1950s to mid-1980s on VCG in general and Frank’s System in particular, however, in last three decades it has been dropped as a routine cardiac test. The major reasons being unconventional electrode placements which required training of the physicians, greater number of electrodes involved when used to supplement S12 system and additional hardware complexity involved, at least in the early days. Although it lost the interest of cardiologists, the engineering community has adopted the VCG as a tool for interdisciplinary research. We envisage that, if accurate Frank’s VCG system is made available avoiding the aforementioned limitations, VCG will complement S12 system in diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).
