An engineer has created a 3D model of the human heart, inspired by his daughter’s heart condition, with the goal of creating a library of virtual hearts for researchers to use whenever they want.

Science Astounding 3D-printed human heart model cuts and sutures like the real thing The full-size, life-like model could give surgeons a chance to practice their life-saving skills.

Researchers have developed a way to grow human heart tissue that can serve as a model for the upper chambers of the heart, known as the atria. The tissue, derived from human induced pluripotent ...

Several companies have attempted to create usable 3D models of the heart. There are versions that recreate the exterior of the heart, and others that are in prototype.

It's not science fiction anymore: 3D-printing a human heart is now a reality. A company called Biolife4D has developed the technology to print human cardiac tissue by collecting blood cells from a ...

For the first time in recorded history, scientists have created a working, vascularized engineered heart using human cells by printing it in 3D.

The 3D heart was created from human cells obtained through biopsies. These tissue samples were experimentally reprogrammed to become “pluripotent” or de-identified stem cells.

A team of researchers from Michigan State University has created a miniature human heart model in the laboratory. For the first time in history, this mode is complete with all primary heart cell ...

Laza's software constructs a patient-specific, 3D heart model in real time using ultrasound data alone. Validating this ...

In the U.S., someone has a heart attack every 40 seconds, and yet researchers have not had a model that fully mimics what occurs in the human heart after a heart attack. A team of investigators at ...

Current models fall short: animal hearts differ significantly from human hearts, and flat (2D) cultures of patient cells or a simpler conventional heart-on-a-chip cannot reproduce the 3D ...

Researchers hope human cardioid platform will enable development of mature, complex heart models for drug discovery and regenerative medicine research.
