3D visualization technologies have evolved to become a mainstay in the management of congenital heart disease (CHD) with a growing presence within multiple facets. Printed and virtual 3D models allow for a more comprehensive approach to educating trainees and care team members. Computational fluid dynamics can take 3D modeling to the next level, by predicting post-procedural outcomes and helping to determine surgical approach. 3D printing and extended reality are developing resources for pre-procedural planning and intra-procedural guidance with the potential to revolutionize decision-making and procedural success. Challenges still remain within existing technologies and their applications to the CHD field. Addressing these gaps, both by those within and outside of CHD, will transform education and patient care within our field.
3D 可视化技术已经发展成为先天性心脏病(CHD)管理的主要手段,在多个方面得到了越来越多的应用。打印和虚拟 3D 模型可以让培训人员和护理团队成员更全面地了解病情。计算流体动力学可以通过预测术后结果并帮助确定手术方法,将 3D 建模提升到一个新的水平。3D 打印和扩展现实正在为术前规划和术中指导开发资源,有潜力彻底改变决策和手术成功率。现有技术及其在 CHD 领域的应用仍然存在挑战。无论是 CHD 领域内还是领域外的人,都需要解决这些差距,从而改变我们领域的教育和患者护理。
