Patent

CA 2594218

A system and method for sizing and imaging of cardiovascular defects generally are disclosed capable of producing model images or forms that mimic the shape of defects such as openings or breaches in cardiac septum walls, so that remedial devices of the correct size and shape can be administered to occlude defects. The system uses a three-dimensional open wire imaging structure which is flexible, easy to position and does not occlude blood flow and when expanded, can be measured in situ.

L'invention concerne généralement un système et un procédé d'évaluation et de mise en image d'anomalies cardiovasculaires, qui peuvent produire des images ou des formes modèles imitant la forme des anomalies, telles que des ouvertures ou des brèches dans des parois du septum cardiaque, de sorte que des dispositifs réparateurs présentant la dimension et la forme appropriées puissent être administrés pour occlure les anomalies. Le système met en oeuvre une structure d'imagerie à fil nu aérien qui est souple, facile à mettre en place et n'occlut pas le débit sanguin et qui, lorsqu'elle est déployée, peut être mesurée in situ.
