In order to demonstrate the possibilities provided by three-dimensional technologies, to understand disease states and test innovative treatments, this study obtained images of the thoracic region of a patient using multi-slice Computerized Tomography (CT). These images were handled to select only the region of interest, obtaining a three-dimensional digital model of thoraco-abdominal and thoracic aorta. Thereafter, a series of physical models were made using additive manufacturing and thoroughly tested on materials to simulate the elastic structure of the vessel. After building up physical models, the images were processed and rendered, and a virtual simulation model was created to test minimally invasive procedures. The CT s images transformed into virtual mathematical models and later in physical representation, by additive technology, expand educational opportunities and enable simulation of minimally invasive cardiological procedure.
