The medical field around the world has grown into something more advanced than anyone could expect. Recently, the Imperial College in London provided a 3D imagery of the human heart and medically used it to predict and possibly intercept heart disease before it even started to develop. 

According to TechTimes, around 1,258 volunteers agreed to have their hearts mapped through MRI technology and use 3D images to compare it with other individuals, who have already developed some heart disease. By comparing the images, doctors were able to determine progressive illness from that of a normal heart and predicted possible diseases that may arise.

Some of the symptoms that were significantly considered during the whole process include the participant's heart shape. 

The concept of knowing in advance the possibility of a normal heart to develop some abnormality due to increased blood pressure can now be determined. By having this information ahead of time, doctors can perform medical adjustments, such as preventive maintenance and cure for that predicted heart disease. 

In a press release, Dr. Declan O'Regan said, "New 3D-imaging technology lets researchers look at the living heart I amazing detail." He also said that the patient's risk of high blood pressure is very easy to determine, yet early signs of heart failure can only be determined using 3D imagery.

According to News Wise, around 16 million people in the U.K. suffer from high blood pressure that resulted to at least 62,000 cases of death caused by stroke and heart attack. Despite acknowledging it as "preventable death," the said heart diseases were rarely diagnosed using other forms of medical diagnosis except for the conventional way of having their blood pressure taken. With the use of 3D imagery and its advanced technology, a lot of information regarding heart disease could be discovered and essentially prevented.

Dr. Antonio de Marvao also confirmed that the new technology of 3D imaging will provide early information on possible heart diseases. 

He said, "High blood pressure is often called the silent killer, and we can now see that its effect start much earlier and affect more people who do not develop such changes." 

Mainly, doctors are looking after the effect of high blood pressure and how it severly counts to heart disease. Doctors are now in the process of discovering genetic differences between those who have changes in their heart rate's stability and those people who doesn't reflect any development.
