Abstract
A method and apparatus for characterizing cardiac function and detecting disorders thereof deploys a plurality of sensors on skin surface or close to it, to acquire data for detecting, locating, analyzing and displaying the time variant shifts in the local center of gravity of the heart tissues and fluids. The method deploys a sensor apparatus that is able to detect micro and/or nano vibrations arising from characteristic events in the cardiac cycle and/or movement of the heart tissue and fluids. The time variant shifts of the heart's center of gravity may be displayed with other temporal measures of cardiac activity such an ECG to facilitate the detection and diagnosis of abnormalities, and/or confirm a diagnosis from the ECG.
