HEADLINE: High tech vest could help predict cardiac arrests
ANNOTATION: Doctors and researchers from University College London developed a vest to help identify people with a higher risk of sudden cardiac death.
2. Various of Dr. Gaby Captur, of the UCL Institute of Cardiovascular Science and the Royal Free Hospital, looking at ECG results on laptop
ANNOTATION: The electrocardiographic imaging, or ECGI, vest provides detailed diagnostics of a heart's electrical activity.
3. Various of Dr. Gaby Captur and trial patient
ANNOTATION: It complements the information obtained from a Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, scan.
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr Gaby Captur, UCL Institute of Cardiovascular Science and the Royal Free Hospital: ++OVERLAID BY SHOTS 5,6,7,8 AND 9++
"What it basically consists of is a vest which a patient can wear for five minutes at rest or during exercise, and it's embedded with 256 sensors, shall we say, which don't have any gel so, they're quite comfortable and easy to wear and it gives us a huge amount of electrical information, mapping the heart not as a single signal, but mapping the heart panoramically. So, we literally get three dimensional maps of the heart, and we can look at the electrics of the heart propagating all across the cardiac chambers. And then when the patient goes in to have their MRI scan, at the end of the scan we are able to map that data onto the MRI scan."

10. Various of Farrar wearing vest
ANNOTATION: The vest has been successfully trialed on around 800 people. The results have been positive, and it is being readied for a wider roll out.
ANNOTATION: The vest is currently being used to map the hearts of people with diseases such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy.
ANNOTATION: UCL Business has now patented the ECGI vest in the U.S. and is looking to explore how the vest could be manufactured more widely.

STORYLINE:
Doctors and researchers from University College London have developed a new vest that could potentially be used to identify people with a higher risk of sudden cardiac death.
The vest takes just a couple of minutes to attach and provides detailed diagnostics of a heart's electrical activity.
It has already been successfully trialed on around 800 people and the results have been so positive it is being readied for a wider roll out.
It is called an electrocardiographic imaging vest (ECGI vest).
If we imagine a map of a country - this could be considered the information an MRI scan provides for doctors.
If we imagine a map of a country but with all of the roads and rail networks - this could be considered the information the ECGI vest provides, when coupled with an MRI scan.
"It gives us a huge amount of electrical information, mapping the heart not as a single signal, but mapping the heart panoramically," Dr. Gaby Captur from the UCL Institute of Cardiovascular Science and the Royal Free Hospital said as she explained the new vest.
"We literally get three dimensional maps of the heart and we can look at the electrics of the heart propagating all across the cardiac chambers."
