Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to utilize cardiac imaging data acquired as part of the standard of care for these patients, such as MRI, 3D echo, and CT, and existing 3D reconstruction protocols to assess the feasibility of using surgical planning in the treatment of patients with complex cardiac defects. The specific aims of the project are as follows: 1. Develop a protocol to reconstruct heart models from patient imaging data and perform "virtual" surgery on reconstructed 3D anatomy using appropriate, pre-existing patient datasets. 2. Use the developed protocol to prospectively plan and evaluate the possible surgical options for new patients. 3. Validate that the optimal virtual anatomy agrees with what was surgically implemented using post-operative patient scans, when available.
