Christopher Kopan, Meghan C. McCarthy, Ph.D. Matthew Bramlet MD

Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Midwest Pediatric Cardiology Society (MWPCS)

This poster expounds on the NIH 3D resource and the value crowd-sourced expertise in the field of biomedical 3D modeling can lend to clinical understanding of complex cases benefitting patient care.

Creation of Patient-specific Silicone Cardiac Models with Applications in Pre-surgical Plans and Hands-on Training

Tate Ralph, Megan Mattus, Sister M. Pieta, and Dr. Matthew Bramlet

Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Midwest Pediatric Cardiology Society (MWPCS)

This poster highlights a new imaging option used with a complex pediatric cardiology case to capture both high anamotical resolution and accurate tissue characteristics without compromising the integrity of either attribute.

Use of Immersive Environments to Address the Challenge of Entrustability in Recognition of the Critically-ill Patient

Presented at the Association of American Medical Colleges 2020 Annual Meeting

This poster highlights the results of a research project testing the effectiveness of VR training for clinicians in diagnosing critically-ill patients. Participants in the study earned high correct response rates and rated VR experience as equal or superior to traditional lecture.
