For pre-surgical planning or medical education, a personalized version of the Living Heart can be registered in 3D space to a model of the patient in question. A long-term collaboration known as the ...

MSU researchers have created the first human heart-like “organoids” that enable the study of atrial fibrillation, or A-fib. The models also enable new ways of evaluating heart development, diseases ...

Drosophila -- known as fruit flies -- are a valuable model for human heart pathophysiology, including cardiac aging and cardiomyopathy. However, a choke point in evaluating fruit fly hearts is the ...

The models can be used to plan surgeries and in the future could be used to help trial new drugs. A healthy heart beats at a steady rate, between 60 and 100 times a minute. That’s not the case for all ...

Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham now show a way to significantly cut the time needed for that analysis while utilizing more of the heart region, using deep learning and ...
