| This is a generally available augment that allows the agent's [[:attacks]] ignore [[:heart monitors]], at a cost of 3 [[:PWR]] per attack. This allows an agent to kill [[:guards:]] without raising the alarm but it also allows an agent to [[:KO]] guards on [[:modes:Expert Plus]], [[:modes:Endless Plus]], or any time the "Alarm when guards KO" difficulty setting is switched on. This augment has no effect on [[:cleanup cost]]. | **Anatomy Analysis** is an [[:augments:|augment]]; when an agent with Anatomy Analysis makes an [[:attack]] with a [[:weapons:#ranged weapons|ranged weapon]] against a guard with a [[:Heart Monitor]], the effect of the Heart Monitor is ignored for a cost of 3 [[:PWR]]. This allows an agent to [[:lethal damage|kill]] human [[:guards:]] without raising the alarm level, and to [[:KO|knock them out]] without raising the alarm level in [[:modes:Expert Plus]] and [[:modes:Endless Plus]] modes. If a non-lethal attack is made, the target's Heart Monitor is only ignored for that attack, not permanently disabled. |

| | Anatomy Analysis is available from some [[:mainframe devices:Nanofabricators]] for 650 [[:credits]], or from some [[:mainframe devices:Augment Grafters]]. |
| | |
| | The effect of Anatomy Analysis is not optional, so it always applies when the agency has at least 3 PWR (after paying the weapon's PWR cost, if any), unless the target's Heart Monitor has already been disabled. There is no effect when the agency does not have enough PWR to use it. |
| | |
| | Anatomy Analysis does not apply to [[:attack#melee attacks]]. It does not work on [[:guards:OMNI Harbingers]] because of their [[:heart monitor#Improved Heart Monitor|Improved Heart Monitors]], and it does not affect the [[:cleanup cost]] for killing guards. |
