- 19. An ECG is a quick, noninvasive test that measures the electrical activity of the heart.
- 20. Myocardial Infarction
- 21. An irregular heartbeat, which can be too fast, too slow, or erratic.
- 23. A cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan uses a powerful magnetic field and radio waves to create highly detailed, 3D images of the heart.

Down
- 1. This involves damage or a defect in one or more of the heart's valves, affecting blood flow.
- 2. Coronary angiography is an invasive procedure that uses X-rays and a special contrast dye injected via a catheter to visualize blood flow through the arteries in the heart.
- 3. A Holter monitor is a small, portable ECG device that continuously records the heart's electrical activity over a period of 24 to 48 hours or longer.
- 4. Blood vessels that carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart
- 7. Atrial Fibrillation
- 11. A condition where the heart can't pump blood efficiently enough to meet the body's needs
- 12. The test reveals information about the heart's size, shape, and pumping strength
