We show that the recoils of the body caused by cardiac motion and blood circulation provide a noninvasive method capable to display the motions of the heart muscle and the propagation of the pulse wave along aorta and its branches. The results are compared with the data obtained invasively during a heart catheterization. We show that the described noninvasive method is able to determine the moment of a particular heart movement or the time when the pulse wave reaches certain morphological structure.
