Far-field signal contamination and low spatial resolution obscure regional repolarization gradients and duration alternans detection using unipolar ARI. We hypothesized that the attenuation of far-field contamination with the principal component-referenced unipole will allow for a more accurate assessment of true local repolarization gradients and spatially assess action potential duration alternans.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Unipolar ARI and the novel method, Repol\n                      <jats:sup>Loc<\/jats:sup>\n                      , were validated for the detection of spatial and temporal repolarization changes using simultaneous optical and electrical mapping in a rabbit Langendorff model. Repolarization changes were created using global infusion of ibutilide or pinacidil, or topical application of lidocaine. Epicardial mapping was conducted in a porcine Langendorff model following the topical application of lidocaine to investigate the spatial resolution of each method. Generalized linear models of the two methods were used to compare with optical action potential duration (APD80).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Following the infusion of antiarrhythmic drugs, the Repol\n                      <jats:sup>Loc<\/jats:sup>\n                      method (slope=0.90) had a slightly higher correlation to optical APD80 than the ARI method (slope=0.79).
