The virtual heart can be inserted into a virtual torso to get a simulated electrocardiogram.
The first test I underwent was an EKG (electrocardiogram), which has been the front line test of cardiac diagnostics for many years.

When the patient first gets the personal heart attack detector, they would take an Electrocardiogram (ECG), which records the rhythm and activity of the heart.
The resulting electrocardiogram data is sent wirelessly to a nearby mobile phone, which then transmits it to a monitoring centre, or directly to a doctor.
When fellow passengers reported chest pains on two recent flights, cardiologist Eric Topol was able to check their heart rhythms with an electrocardiogram app on his iPhone called AliveCor.

Arthur Zang, a 24 year-old Cameroonian engineer, has invented the Cardiopad, a touch screen medical tablet that enables heart examinations such as the electrocardiogram (ECG) to be performed at remote, rural locations while the results of the test are transferred wirelessly to specialists who can interpret them.
Assuming that climate history over the past 400, 000 years continues to repeat its pattern with the nearly electrocardiogram regularity, maybe we should think about enjoying this brief intermission before the next life-unfriendly Ice Age covers much of the Northern Hemisphere with glaciers up to miles thick for the next 90, 000 years.
