Patient specific surgical simulators can be effective training tools in cardiac surgery. There is currently no patient specific aortic training models that can fully capture the mechanical and tactile properties of the human aorta. Most current training models are cadavers or animal models. Cadavers and animal organs are expensive, only available in limited supply, and lack patient specific pathologies. Current synthetic models are tubular, idealized geometries and are made of unrealistic materials. To develop new surgical training models, CT datasets from five patients were acquired under informed consent. Section of the aorta from the aortic root to the descending aorta, including the three major branches, were segmented. The generated ao...
