Abstract:In this paper,a numerical model of a three dimensional human torso has been presented.In this model,the torso part including anisotropic muscle layers has been discretized by means of the finite element method(FEM).The rest of torso have been divided into the surface elements by the boundary element method(BEM).This discretized model can be used in the field such as the forward problem and the inverse problem of the electrocardiogram(ECG).
