Mechanical testing and comparison of porcine tissue, silicones and 3D-printed materials for cardiovascular phantoms

Mechanical testing and comparison of porcine tissue, silicones and 3D-printed materials for cardiovascular phantoms

Background: Cardiovascular phantoms for patient education, pre-operative planning, surgical training, haemodynamic simulation, and device testing may help improve patient care. However, currently used materials may have different mechanical properties compared to biological tissue.Methods/Aim: The a...
