a. Arrest
b. Attack
c. Arrhythmia
d. None of the above

ANSWER: Arrhythmia
 
A new non-invasive, personalised 3D virtual heart assessment tool is the new discovery to help doctors determine if a patient faces a risk of life-threatening arrhythmia.
  • Researchers formed its predictions by using the distinctive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) records of patients who had survived a heart attack but were left with damaged cardiac tissue that predisposes the heart to deadly arrhythmias.
  • If electrical waves run amok in arrhythmia, sudden death can occur, said researchers.
  • This machine can prevent sudden cardiac deaths.
