3D heart to let surgeons practise baby’s vital heart operation

• 3D heart models enable surgeons to practise complex congenital heart operations preoperatively, potentially improving surgical outcomes in neonatal cases
• Personalised anatomical models based on individual patient imaging allow for tailored surgical planning and rehearsal before intervention
• This technology may reduce operative time, complications, and improve confidence in managing complex paediatric cardiac surgery

A 3D model of a baby’s heart will help doctors prepare for open heart surgery.
