                 relationship between cardiac tissue structure, applied
                 electric field, and the transmembrane potential induced
                 in the process of defibrillation. Tissue
                 inhomogeneities also contribute to local membrane
                 polarization in the myocardium which is superimposed
                 over the large-scale polarization associated with the
                 fibrous organization of the myocardium. The paper
                 presents simulation results that illustrate various
                 mechanisms by which cardiac tissue structure assists
                 the changes in transmembrane potential throughout the
                 myocardium. (c) 1998 American Institute of Physics.",
