A system is provided for displaying heart graphic information relating to sources and source locations of a heart disorder to assist in evaluation of the heart disorder. A heart graphic display system provides an intra-cardiogram similarity (“ICS”) graphic and a source location (“SL”) graphic. The ICS graphic includes a grid with the x-axis and y-axis representing patient cycles of a patient cardiogram with the intersections of the patient cycle identifiers indicating similarity between the patient cycles. The SL graphic provides a representation of a heart with source locations indicated. The source locations are identified based on similarity of a patient cycle to library cycles of a library cardiogram of a library of cardiograms.

An electromagnetic bio-signal detector to monitor very weak evoked action potentials associated with neurotransmissions is described. The small induction-coil array detector and integrated circuit design enables the device to have a small and possibly portable form factor while minimizing cost. Advanced signal processing methods enables the device to detect very weak electromagnetic signals without the need for shielding to reduce electromagnetic background emissions. The combination of cost, size, and sensitivity affords the electromagnetic bio-signal detector broad utility both inside and outside hospital settings and for numerous diagnostic and treatment feedback applications.
