Photograph your heart

High blood pressure (hypertension): Heart or blood vessels, who’s to blame? Hypertension is one of the major risk factors of mortality worldwide. However, most often people have no symptoms, and not aware of such risk, which makes hypertension a “silent killer”.

Learn from about the mechanism of high blood pressure as you watch and take a picture of your heart contracting using heart ultrasound (echocardiography).

This activity will be hosted by Haotian Gu, School of Cardiovascular Medicine & Sciences.
