Merge 4D DICOM, segmentations, clinical landmarks and biophysical simulations of TAVI placement to assist cardiac surgeons in device selection and risk assessment.

Segmentations of the vasculature are extracted from a CT movie. They form the basis for simulating the physical effects of device insertion and expansion on the vessel walls, keeping in mind patient specific vasculature and calcifications.
The surgeon inspects all datasets in one go to decide which device type and size to use for this patient.
Project lead – 5 team members working on:
- Biophysical simulation
- Workflow analysis and interaction design
- VR viewing implementation
- Qualitative clinical evaluation
The Unity based demonstrator was shown at the Dutch Technology Week in 2019.
