electrogram
Cardiac electrical readout
An electrogram is a recording of electrical activity from within the body, typically the heart.
Unlike an electrocardiogram, which measures signals from the skin's surface, an electrogram captures signals directly from electrodes placed inside or on the organ: The electrogram showed abnormal impulses originating in the left atrium.
The term appears primarily in cardiology and electrophysiology.
