An object of the present invention is to provide a garment for measuring biological information for animals, in which the electrode portion is less likely to be displaced from the body even upon a movement of an animal and the biological information can be measured accurately, and to provide a method for measuring biological information.

A garment for measuring biological information comprising a front body and a back body having a large tensile elongation EMT. Since the garment for measuring biological information has a band around a torso, it is possible to prevent the electrodes from being displaced from the body due to a movement. Further, since the connection portion between the front body and the back body of the garment for measuring biological information is made of a woven or knitted fabric that expands and contracts in the direction from the head to the tail, the electrodes are less likely to be displaced from the body even upon a great movement. Therefore, the garment for measuring biological information of the present invention can accurately measure the biological information of a moving animal.

The present invention relates to a method to provide a mean temporal spatial isochrone (TSI) feature relating to an ECG feature (wave form) of interest, such as the activation of the heart from a single point (QRS), relative to the heart in a torso while using an ECG measurement from an ECG recording device. The method includes: receiving ECG measuring data from the ECG recording device; determining vector cardiogram (VCG) data; receiving a model of the heart, preferably with torso, as an input, preferably based on a request including request parameters; determining mean TSI data values representing the TSI feature relating to an electrophysiological phase representing the ECG feature, the mean TSI providing a location within the heart representing the mean location of the ECG feature at the corresponding time; positioning the mean TSI feature and preferably the vector cardiogram data points in the model of the heart and/or torso at an initial position; and rendering the model of the heart, preferably with torso, with the mean TSI feature, preferably with VCG data related to the TSI, for displaying on a display screen for interpretation of the displayed rendering.

A biosignal measurement system comprises an adapter for a biosignal measurement device, and an external support structure separate from the adapter. The adapter comprises tool-less connectors, which are repeatedly connectable to and disconnectable from their counter connectors of the external support structure, and a device connector, which has an electrical connection with the tool-less connectors and which has a connection with the biosignal measurement device that the adapter carries. The external support structure comprises an electrode support structure with electrodes and tool-less counter connectors, the electrodes and the tool-less counter connectors having an electrical connection therebetween. The electrodes form an electrical contact with skin for receiving the biosignal. The counter connectors are in electrical contact with the connectors of the adapter for transferring the biosignal to the biosignal measurement device through the adapter.
