Abstract: In an aspect, the present disclosure provides a method comprising: (a) identifying a first negative and positive electromagnetic dipoles in a first electromagnetic field map associated with a heart of the individual at a first time; (b) identifying a second negative and positive electromagnetic dipoles in a second electromagnetic field map associated with the heart of the individual at a second time; (c) determining a first angle based on the first negative and positive electromagnetic dipoles; (d) determining a second angle based on the second negative and positive electromagnetic dipoles; and (e) determining a presence, an absence, or a likelihood of coronary artery disease in the individual, based at least in part on (i) whether the first angle differs from the second angle by at least 100 degrees, or (ii) whether there is a presence of a third electromagnetic dipole in the first or the second electromagnetic field map.

Abstract: A surgical training aid apparatus for facilitating the training of medical procedures comprising a housing and an anatomical replicating assembly. The housing includes a tray having a bottom surface and a top surface opposite the bottom surface. The anatomical replicating assembly is positioned upon the top surface of the tray of the housing, and includes a base layer and at least one body component. The base layer has a bottom surface and a top surface, and, overlays a portion of the top surface of the tray of the housing. The base layer further includes a tackiness. The body component is positioned between the top surface of the housing and the bottom surface of the base layer or on the base layer. The body component likewise includes a tackiness. The body component is releasably coupled to the base layer due to the tackiness of the two components, wherein the tackiness is overcome so as to separate the at least one body component relative to the base layer.
