From: Rehearsal simulation to determine the size of device for left atrial appendage occlusion using patient-specific 3D-printed phantoms

Figure 7

LAAO was performed using a device of the predicted size. (A) A cardiologist performing TEE during the procedure. (B) Another cardiologist injecting saline, medicine, and medium contrast through the manifold. (C) Checking of fluoroscopy and TEE in real time during the procedure. (D) Confirmation of the device insertion predicted by fluoroscopy correctly into the LAA. LAA left atrial appendage, LAAO left atrial appendage occlusion, TEE transesophageal echocardiography.
