Structural Heart
Pre-procedural planning
Successful structural heart interventions require innovation to navigate the high risks and complexity. 3D-CT planning and 3D printing reveal unprecedented insights while preparing for structural heart interventions. The adoption of 3D in the modern medical setting is inevitable — bringing clarity to complexity with these technologies.

Harness the power of 3D
Go beyond 3D visualization and volume rendering with 3D-CT and utilize 3D measurements, automation, AI, simulation, and 3D printing.
How can 3D-CT planning help beyond visualization?
3D volume rendering
“Although a volume render model allows rapid visualization of the grayscale in 3D, it has limited capabilities for downstream operations such as automated quantification.”¹
3D-CT planning
“Computational modeling enables automated analysis of anatomic structures, provides enhanced spatial insight and can be converted to a 3D-printed model.”¹

Discover the facts on 3D-CT planning for structural heart interventions
100% procedural success with 3D-CT vs. 92% with 2D-TEE. CT-guided LAAO case planning was associated with improved device selection, accuracy, and procedural efficiency.
Prospective, randomized comparison of 3-dimensional computed tomography guidance versus TEE data for left atrial appendage occlusion (PRO3DLAAO) (2017)
25% reduced procedure time with 3D-CT vs. 2D-TEE. AAO case planning using 3D-CT was significantly more efficient with respect to device utilization, guide catheters, and procedure time.
Prospective, randomized comparison of 3-dimensional computed tomography guidance versus TEE data for left atrial appendage occlusion (PRO3DLAAO) (2017)
75% reduced neo-LVOT assessment time with 3D-CT vs. traditional CT planning. Time to complete neo-LVOT assessment in 2 device positions was found to be between 1 and 5 min.
TCT-440 A More Efficient Method of Patient Evaluation for TMVR: Planning for Best- and Worst-Case Position (2019)
More consistent neo-LVOT prediction with 3D-CT (0.99 ICC) vs. with traditional CT planning (0.87 ICC). With the 3D semi-automatic tool, two modelers estimated a more reliable neo-LVOT area than with the 2D centerline method.
