Effects of Increasing Intercellular Resistance on Transverse and Longitudinal Propagation in Sheep Epicardial Muscle

Propagation in cardiac muscle is faster in the longitudinal than in the transverse axis of the cells. Yet, as a result of the larger upstroke velocity of action potentials propagating transversely, it has been suggested that longitudinal propagation is more vulnerable to block. To study the relation...
