Aging in autonomic control by multifractal studies of cardiac interbeat intervals in the VLF band.

abstract：:Electrical impedance endotomography (EIE) is a modality of impedance imaging where the electrodes are located on an insulating core placed at the centre of the region of interest. The absence of a physical limit to the medium surrounding the probe enables the use of remote electrodes. The present study compares the fe...
