Israeli Team Testing Cell Phone Heart Monitor

An Israeli team has recently designed and produced a new device for monitoring cardiovascular disease, according to Arutz Sheva.

"The Biolapis heart monitor is a handheld computer device for screening cardiovascular disease, which achieves sensitivity currently available only in high-end imaging equipment.

It offers general practitioners, clinicians, and cardiologists an affordable method to reliably diagnose and monitor cardiovascular risks.

Negotiations are currently underway with Samsung to produce a new line of cell phones incorporating the new technology".
