    Abstract:
    The governing equations for evaluating propagation in a cylindrical bidomain are presented. The tissue model assumes equal anisotropy ratios. The simulations indicate that unlike the behavior noted in conventional one-dimensional models, the shape of the transmembrane potential, Vm, is affected by the conductivities. For mathematical simplicity, equal anisotropy is assumed, i.e., the ratio of the intracellular and interstitial conductivities is the same in the radial and axial directions
