Cardiac anatomy The heart consists of four chambers separated by valves. The right side of the heart, which consists of the right atrium (upper chamber; sometimes called the right auricle) and the right ventricle (lower chamber), pumps blood to the lungs. The left side of the heart, ...

s anatomy in one pass. Part of the catheterization suite includes the ability to reconstruct images into a 3D representation of the patient?s anatomy. The new room and state-of-the-art equipment will allow us to better serve our community. About Desert...
“The minimal interaction with the right cardiac chamber resulted in an easy implantation of the pacemaker; the polymer leaflets and the minimal footprint demonstrated an optimal adaptation to the native anatomy and stability through six months’ follow-up.” SOURCES Original Study: 1.Gian Paolo Uss...
The jewel of this system is the ability to do a 3D spin of the x-ray tube around the patient. This allows a complete picture of patient’s anatomy in one pass. Part of the catheterization suite includes the ability to reconstruct images into a 3D representation of the patient’s...
Post processing and advanced visualization algorithms allow the extraction of specific structures such as bones, lung tissue, and soft tissue structures, which allows the physician to better understand complex anatomy. This can be invaluable to surgeons in their preoperative planning and very useful in...
Cardiac CTA is an alternate modality for assessment of anatomy prior to Glenn cavopulmonary anastomosis with excellent visualization of aortopulmonary shunt or Sano shunt anatomy, pulmonary anatomy, and aortic arch anatomy. High pitch CTA can be obtained free breathing and with minimal or no sedation...

valvulopasty, and implantation of pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. Cardiac cath lab nurses must have an advanced understanding of cardiac anatomy so duties can be carried out quickly and correctly. The range of duties is substantial but some of the most important are listed bel...
“It gives operators the confidence about not only what device size to use for that specific patient but also what catheter to use for that patient's specific anatomy,” Wang explained. “And it gives the team a road map and a plan without having to figure it out on the table, which ...
