1. A system for identifying and localizing ischemic cardiac tissue comprising:

  • a system measuring magnetic cardiac cycle data and modeling an effective dipole as a source of said measured magnetic data at a proximate point on an ST segment of said measured magnetic data;

    an ischemia localizer calculating and visualizing spatial positions associated with said modeled dipole over a remainder of said ST segment, and an ischemia identifier identifying significant movement and a direction associated with said movement of said dipole over said ST segment, and in case of a moving dipole;

    said heart identified as having ischemic tissue, and said direction of movement identified as pointing to a general location of said ischemic cardiac tissue.
