Engineers developed a procedure to 3D print a soft and flexible replica of a patient's heart. These models could help doctors tailor treatments, such as aortic valves, to an individual patient. No two ...

SAND SPRINGS, Okla. — A Sand Springs high school student played an important role in creating a needed training tool for Warren Clinic Maternal and Fetal Medicine. They now have a 3D fetal heart model ...

Using models derived from human cells and tissues, called in vitro models, researchers designed a 3D organoid model that mimics how the human heart develops. The researchers saw how exposure to low ...

At 3 weeks old, Samantha underwent the first of four surgeries for congenital single-ventricle heart disease. She had been diagnosed before birth with the rare birth defect that left only half of her ...

Research from a collaborative team of biomedical engineers, physicians and scientists could enable significant advances for the 40,000 pediatric congenital heart disease patients (CHD) born each year.

A heart attack cuts off blood flow and oxygen to heart tissue. This can damage muscle and, in severe cases, cause the heart wall to rupture. Surgeons often repair these defects with patches made from ...
