Left atrial appendage sizing for percutaneous closure in virtual reality—a feasibility study

Left atrial appendage sizing for percutaneous closure in virtual reality—a feasibility study

Background and aimsThe complex and highly variable three-dimensional anatomy of the left atrial appendage (LAA) makes planning and device sizing for interventional occlusion procedures (LAAC) challenging. Several imaging modalities [e.g. echocardiography, multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT)] are...
