As the team planned to approach the patient’s heart through his venous system, the most careful planning and precision was required. Cardiac anatomy of course is made up of very intricate three-dimensional structures, and as such, 2D imaging can be pretty limited in being able to provide the precision requested.
Axial3D, the medical 3D Printing Solutions Company has been a forerunner in offering the medical community with unique 3D printing and modelling solutions. This time the company, through its precision 3D medical modelling has offered a surgeon with a 3D printed cardiac model that helped the surgeon to improve patient safety in a complex surgery that involved fixing multiple congenital heart defects.
