Described herein are methods, software, systems and devices for detecting the presence of an abnormality in an organ, tissue, body, or portion thereof of a subject by analysis of the electromagnetic fields generated by the organ, tissue, body, or portion thereof.

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.

A magnetometer system for medical use comprises one or more induction coils for detecting a time varying magnetic field. Each coil has a maximum outer diameter of 10 cm or less, and a configuration such that the ratio of the coil's length to its outer diameter is 0.9 or more, and the ratio of the coil's inner diameter to its outer diameter is 0.6 or more. Each induction coil comprises a magnetic core. The magnetometer system further comprises a detection circuit coupled to each coil and configured to convert a current or voltage generated in the coil by a time varying magnetic field to an output signal for use to analyse the time varying magnetic field.

Techniques are described for a non-invasive detection of a health condition of an organ. In an example, the electrical conductivity of the organ reflects the organ's health of. An inductive damping sensor can be used to detect the organ's electrical conductivity and, thus, its health. The inductive damping sensor can be placed in proximity of the organ such as the organ is within the magnetic field generated based on a coil of the inductive damping sensor. The conductivity of the organ impacts the inductance and the resistance of the coil. Hence, the inductance and/or resistance of the coil can be measured, where the measurements can be associated with the health of the organ.

An atomic magnetometer includes a laser light source that emits light, a light splitting unit that splits the light emitted from the laser light source into a first light beam and a second light beam, a transparent cell filled with an alkali metal atom and through which the first light beam is transmitted; and a photodetector.

Systems, devices, and methods for localizing magnets are useful for biological tissue analysis and other applications. Tissue analysis systems for use with a tissue analysis device may include a storage medium storing computer readable instructions that cause the execution of magnet localization methods. The system may include the tissue analysis device, which includes a magnet and a magnetometer array disposed adjacent to the magnet. When executed by a processor, the instructions cause operations, including recording a magnetic field of the magnet with the magnetometer array, simulating a simulated magnetic field at each magnetometer of the magnetometer array, and estimating positional information of the magnet based upon iterating simulated positional information of the simulated magnet.
