Background:

Developing effective prostheses for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) requires accurate 3D models of the aortic root.
Existing models may not fully capture the unique geometric variations of the aortic root.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop patient-specific 3D models of the human aortic root.
To enhance the accuracy of finite element analysis (FEA) for TAVI prosthesis design.

Main Methods:

Analysis of echocardiography (ECHO) and computed tomography (CT) data from 117 patients.
Development of four unique 3D aortic root models based on computational analysis.
Application of varying material properties to the aortic annulus in the models for FEA.

Main Results:

Creation of four distinct 3D human aortic root models with unique geometries.
Demonstration that incorporating specific material properties in the aortic annulus zone significantly improves FEA results.
Validation of models using patient ECHO and CT data.

Conclusions:

The developed 3D aortic root models offer unique geometric representations.
These models can serve as a valuable tool for designing improved TAVI prostheses.
Enhanced FEA through material property simulation leads to more accurate device development.
