Georgia Institute of Technology 3D printing heart valve model to improve the success rate of valve replacement

It is reported that researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology and Piemonte Heart Institute are using customized 3D printed heart valve models based on patients' heart CT scanning to improve the success rate of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) surgery. Their aim is to avoid perivalvular leakage. This research has been published in JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging.
