Summary

This study sought to evaluate the impact of Virtual Reality (VR) tools in procedural planning of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

Detailed description

A prospective study involving 11 patients referred for TAVR was conducted. A multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) was used to acquire and segment the anatomy of the access route and landing zone. From the information obtained with the MDCT in DICOM format, the investigators built a virtual platform (VisuaMed, Teacher Team. Valencia. Spain) that contains all the clinical information of the patients and a virtualized model of their anatomy. Wearing VR devices, the professional was able to "walk inside " the anatomy in an interactive and immersive way. Decisions after the evaluation of routine clinical images were compared with those after experience with VR models and intraprocedural findings.
