![EchoPixel showed technology at TCT 2019 that creates live holograms in the cath lab from 3-D TEE imaging. It projects the holograms on a special display screen that does not require the user to wear 3-D glasses. The interventional cardiologist can use hand movements and a foot switch to move the image around without breaking the sterile field. It offers a new way to visualize catheters, device positioning and deployment for structural heart procedures. #TCT2019 #TCT #TCT19](/sites/default/files/styles/content_feed_large/public/field/image/Echopixel_3D_imaging_Neil_Kleiman_TCT19_staff_DF.jpg?itok=ut3mtiub)
