Devices and methods for anatomic mapping for prosthetic implants
A method of generating a patient-specific prosthetic includes receiving anatomic imaging data representative of a portion of a patient's anatomy. A first digital representation of the anatomic imaging data is defined. The first digital representation of the anatomic imaging data is modified. A second digital representation of the portion of the patient's anatomy is defined based on the modifying of the first digital representation of the anatomic imaging data. A patient-specific prosthetic template of the portion of the patient's anatomy is generated based at least in part on the second digital representation of the anatomic imaging data.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving a digital representation of a portion of a patient's blood vessel, the digital representation including data representative of a first location of an anatomic feature of the patient's blood vessel;
modifying the digital representation to determine a second location of the anatomic feature of the patient's blood vessel, the second location different than the first location; and
generating a model of the portion of the patient's blood vessel, the model including data representative of the second location of the anatomic feature.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital representation is based on imaging data associated with the portion of the patient's blood vessel.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the model is a patient-specific template.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second location is calculated from a reference point.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the second location of the anatomic feature is calculated automatically.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the automatic calculation of the second location is based on a user input.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the user input includes at least one of an anatomic feature of the patient, a property of a prosthesis, a delivery device for delivering a prosthesis to the patient, and an insertion location of a prosthesis.
