Abstract 191: Simulating Intracranial Stenosis: A Methodological Approach In An In?Vitro Neurovascular Model

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

We aimed to develop a 3D printed ICAD model including realistic features to provide an optimal simulation phantom for research and training purposes.MethodsStereolithography 3D printing technique was used to create a resin neurovascular model based on vascular anatomies extracted from anonymized CTA images.

Chest pain, resolved. Does it need emergent cath lab activation (some controversy here)? And much much more.

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

A comparison of electrocardiographic changes during reperfusion of acute myocardial infarction by thrombolysis or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Two ECG patterns were described by the original investigators in 1982 as being consistent with a Wellens’ Syndrome prediction of high-grade LAD stenosis. Am Heart J.

Abstract 4140682: Clinical Case: Flipping the Script: Tackling CAD in Dextrocardia During Cardiac Catheterization

Circulation

The left circumflex had 80% proximal stenosis with minimal luminal irregularities in the mid to distal portion. After guidewire crossing, balloon angioplasty was performed, and a drug-eluting stent was deployed. An intravascular ultrasound was also performed, which was negative for vessel dissection.
