For centuries, people misunderstood how the heart works. As our knowledge grew, heart surgery remained a dangerous medical procedure.

This graphic history traces their leap forward and the medical world's newest advancements in heart-health technology. Learn about innovations such as artificial hearts and 3D printed living tissue.
