Project Details
- An interactive simulation of Acute Myocardial Infarction (heart attack) for medical students.
- Using the branching capabilities of HyperCard, students are allowed to visually explore arteries of the heart along with organized data, animation, and audio commentary from an expert physician.
- Combines MRI data driven animations with a hypermedia organized interface to encourage non-linear information exploration by medical students.
