A study led by scientists at King's has revealed how the physical orientation of the heart inside the chest dramatically ...

Clarke writes with rare emotional precision, guiding us through unbearable pain and extraordinary hope with the gentlest hand ...

The human heart is composed of 5 major cell types: cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, macrophages, and smooth muscle cells. 14, 15, 16 Cardiomyocytes contribute roughly 30% to 40% by ...

The cross-sectional anatomy of the mitral valve can clearly be discerned in each loop. With tilting of the hologram (or the light source) up and down, mitral valve motion becomes apparent, and motion ...

In a scientific “first,” a tiny heart structure composed of human cells has been successfully grown within a pig embryo.

Chinese scientists have, for the first time, cultivated a beating heart structure with human cells in a pig embryo, reporting ...

Scientists from QIMR Berghofer's Cardiac Bioengineering Lab have developed lab-grown, three-dimensional heart tissues known ...

The heart is the body's hardest-working muscle. Whether you're awake or asleep, or exercising or resting, your heart is always at work. It pumps blood through arteries to deliver oxygen to organs ...

Electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI) is a non-invasive technique that combines patient-specific cardiac anatomy with numerous body-surface potentials to gain insight into the in vivo electrical ...

Magnetic fields produced by organs of the human body are being measured in the M.I.T. shielded room, using both a SQUID magnetometer and second-derivative gradiometer. Measurements of the field around ...
