beat-to-beat alternation in T-wave amplitude or shape, often invisible to the eye, that marks electrical instability and vulnerability to ventricular arrhythmias.

In cardiology, T-wave alternans refers to beat-to-beat alternation in T-wave amplitude or shape, often invisible to the eye, that marks electrical instability and vulnerability to ventricular arrhythmias. This meaning comes from Rosenbaum (1994) in New England Journal of Medicine.[1]
