The interpretation of ECG for medical purpose has become an important issue today. The medical professionals use this interpretation to diagnose the heart disease. As concern, the manual interpretation may not accurate due to the altered of the ECG signal by cardiovascular disease and abnormalities. The main focus of this project is about analyzing ECG signal by using tomography mapping or in the simplest way; colored representation. Based on the research on the characteristics as well as the technical knowledge of MA TLAB simulation, this project can developed a better way for ECG interpretation. This project is designed to emphasize the one dimensional ECG to colorful pattern known as tomographic mapping based on the vertical and horizontal surge in amplitude. This report will explain the steps involved in implementing the project. At the end, a conclusion has summarized all the ideas discussed in this report. As expected this project should be able to display the tomographic mapping through the color pattern which able to interpret the ECG according to the medical prediction with the greatest accuracy.
