The cardiac morphology in patients with congenital heart disease is often very complex and varies considerably between individuals. Consequently, accurate morphological information remains of outmost importance when planning the surgical intervention. The individual morphology can now be accurately reconstructed and represented by virtual models. This will undoubtedly make three-dimensional imaging and subsequent virtual reconstructions an important clinical investigative tool within the nearest future.
From Aarhus University Hospital we cooperate with Erik Morre Pedersen, MD, DMSc, PhD, Keld Sørensen, MD and Ole Kromann Hansen, MD. We furthermore cooperate with Systematic Software Engineering through Søren Vorre Therkildsen, MSc.
