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.

Diagnostic cardiac catheterization may be needed especially in tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia, to assess the pulmonary anatomy, including size and distribution of peripheral pulmonary arteries. Stenting of the patent ductus arteriosus can be considered in neonatal period for improving oxygen saturation till corrective surgery.

Here I annotate it: This shows 100% occluded circumflex (red arrow) and a 90% stenosis of the LAD (Yellow arrow). The LAD was thought to be not thrombotic, but a chronic tight stenosis. Initial priorities in this patient were clearly to determine the anatomy — and reestablish coronary perfusion. Sotalol prolongs the QT 7.
