| 1. Method for analysing ECG curvature, which curvature contains a number of parameters, wherein the method for analysing the
ECG curvature incorporates the steps of:
a) receiving ECG curvature from a source,
b) indicating a number of different parameters contained in the received ECG curvature,
c) storing the parameters in storage means,
d) select disease specific parameters in the storage means
e) combine selected parameters in mathematical analysing means
f) represent the result of the mathematical analysis as a point in a coordinate system, comprising at least two axes,
g) compare the actual placement in the coordinate system with a number of reference parameters stored in a memory,
h) indicating diseases having influence on the ECG curvature.
