Abstract
|
|
|
|
Modern techniques of image acquisition, post-processing, computer-aided design, and three-dimensional (3D) printing allow for more precise understanding of the complex anatomy in various cardiovascular diseases. The 3D printing for cardiovascular disease may be used as an appropriate educational tool for teaching complex surgical techniques through hands-on simulation of surgery. Moreover, a patient-specific surgical graft could be constructed in accordance with the 3D printed model before the surgery. In this review, we introduce examples of clinical applications of various types of 3D printing based on specific cases and clinical application scenarios of 3D printing. We also discuss the limitations and clinically unmet needs of 3D printing for the preoperative planning of patients with cardiovascular disease.
