May 19, 2010 - New Mitral and Aortic Valves
SynDaver™ Labs recently launched a new line of synthetic heart valves. Our new heart valve designer will allow clients to build
aortic and
mitral valves in a large variety of sizes (12mm - 42mm OD) in either healthy or diseased tissue format. These valves are typically combined with our aorta, vena cava, and heart models, and are currently being used by major medical device manufacturers in design verification and validation tests as well as clinical training applications. Pathologies include calcification, stenosis, and bacterial colonization.
