An exciting collaboration between PrediSurge and 3Deus dynamics
An ultra-realistic simulation tool for aortic interventions training and teaching PlanOp 3DSim
Here below some shots of our recent demonstration where Pr. Feugier trained Dr Gleizes, a fellow, on performing an EVAR with the Medtronic #EndurantII endograft. Both were very enthusiastic about this new training solution that perfectly replicates a patient-specific anatomy, the environment and sensations of the actual intervention.
Thanks to this dual simulation approach, we could simulate the EVAR intervention from a to z:
- Planning: Accurately determine the best intervention strategy (stent graft size and placement), while assessing potential complications on the aortic digital twin. The digital twin was then 3D printed using a patented technology mimicking the biomechanics of the aorta.
- Intervention: Provide a more realistic and hands-on training to less experienced operators from puncture under simulated blood flow to endograft delivery with fluoroscopy guidance – using the same 3D printed aortic model.
A special thank you to Prof. Feugier and Dr Gleizes for their dedication and expertise in making this demonstration a success.
Stay tuned for more updates and insights!
