abstract = {By employing high-temperature superconducting quantum
interference device (SQUID) magnetometers, we have assembled
a second-order gradiometer for magnetocardiography (MCG) in
unshielded environment. With this high-temperature
superconductor (HTS) SQUID system, we demonstrated its
diagnostic relevance for MCG in terms of signal-to-noise
ratio, spatial resolution, frequency bandwidth, rejection of
environmental disturbances, and long-term stability. The
electronically balanced gradiometer consists of three HTS
radio-frequency SQUIDs with superconducting coplanar
resonators, mounted in axial gradiometric arrangement with a
baseline of 7.5 cm. The system achieves a common mode
rejection for axial homogeneous fields of about 10(4)
without any mechanical balancing, and a white noise about
130 fT/root Hz at 77 K, with an 8x8 mm(2) flux pickup area.
MCG maps above volunteers' chests have been recorded in
unshielded environment in a bandwidth of about 130 Hz. We
showed the influence of several notch filters (suppressing
the power line frequency) on the quality of the MCG signals.
