What Customers Say About 3mensio Aortic Valve

Mann Chandavimol, MD (Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok Thailand)

"In my clinical routine, my team and I use 3mensio Aortic Valve as our pre-procedural planning tool due to its ability to provide precise and reproducible measurements. One of the main strengths of the product is the structured approach to analysis, resulting in a simple but complete workup.

The combination of automatic functionalities, such as the nadir point detection, calcium volume scoring, and polygon measurements, along with the full flexibility to alter both automatic and manual measurements at any given moment, makes this a useful tool. The Virtual valve function is also very helpful for better understanding of THV positioning and patient anatomy. The automated measurements and virtual valve allows me to save time while ensuring that I always remain in control.

3mensio now allows you to also add non-contrast scans into your analysis enabling Agaston scoring as part of your standard analysis. The aortic segmentation of the contrast scan is automatically overlapped with the non-contrast scan and you directly get the Agaston score. But of course, you still have the option to include or exclude portions of the calcium if you wish."

Manik Chopra, MD (Narayana Health, Ahmedabad, India)

"With the rising rate of TAVI procedure being performed in South Asia, especially India, it becomes quite important to have an automated analysis workflow which is also accurate. With 3mensio Aortic Valve I can do this easily and with full control. What I like a lot is that 3mensio allows device visualization with the virtual valve functionality. The software enables me as an interventional cardiologist to compare and evaluate different sizes of various devices for the best fit.

Patients for TAVR in the subcontinent are younger, low risk and have often bicuspid aortic valves with small anatomy and bulky leaflets. This subgroup of patients are at higher chances of coronary obstruction during the index TAVR procedure. Also, they would require a repeat procedure (TAVR in TAVR) in future, when the THV degenerates. Assessing the risk of coronary occlusion is an important consideration in TAVR in TAVR procedures. The possibility for THV simulation helps answering above questions. It helps me in understanding the relationship of THV with coronaries in horizonal and vertical dimensions, thereby understanding the risk of coronary obstruction during the index TAVR procedure. It also upfront gives an insight about risk of coronary occlusion during TAVR in TAVR procedure, when the THV degenerates.

Another useful feature is the automatic annular plane segmentation with the cusp detection, which is a real time saver. This along with the simulated angio view and the automatic cusp overlap view gives optimal c-arm angulation which reduces procedure time and saves radiation.

Pre-planning a TAVI case independently is a valuable practice so we can evaluate various devices and choose the most suitable one for the patient. A complete analysis including the automated functions, virtual valve and great report makes 3mensio an easy recommendation in my experience."

Lauren S Ranard, MD (Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, USA)

"Accurate pre-procedural planning is crucial for successful TAVR procedures.

3mensio is not only a reliable tool that allows us to visualize the anatomy and select the appropriate device size, but also has greatly simplified the evaluation process. Therefore, we use 3mensio for the pre-procedural evaluation of each of our patients.

3mensio has established a simplified workflow in which the aortic annulus plane is defined. Coronary heights can be easily measured which is important because coronary obstruction, while rare, can have grave consequences. Also, after choosing the appropriate device size, a virtual valve can be visualized which enables the measurement of the valve to coronary distance (VTC).

Based on the simulated angio view, the coplanar view as well as a cusp overlap view can be generated. These preplanned C-arm angulations are used during the procedure, saving time and radiation."
