Cardiac Imaging

The cardiac imaging channel includes the modalities of computed tomography (CT), cardiac ultrasound (echocardiography), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear imaging (PET and SPECT), and angiography. 

Example of life-like 3D printed cardiac and aortic anatomy available from Materialise. The vendor's software is FDA-cleared for use to print anatomy from CT or MRI studies that will be the exact size as the patient's actual anatomy. This can be used for planning and practicing complex surgical or interventional procedures and the model can aid navigation during procedures.
