Simulation of guiding catheter in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
It is possible to perform all kinds of simulations related to guiding catheters, such as how to deal with abnormal coronary artery origins, coaxiality with the coronary artery, and confirmation of guiding catheter size.
GUIDEYE Sword Aorta outputs the structure around the origin of the coronary arteries from ECG-gated cardiac CT as a polygon file (OBJ format).
Anomalous coronary artery origins can also be extracted.
The output OBJ file can also be viewed in a VR environment, enabling three-dimensional and intuitive analysis.

Coronary access simulation in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)
This evaluates the commissure alignment after TAVI valve placement and the height of the Neo-Sinus relative to the coronary artery, allowing simulation of the optimal route and catheter shape for coronary artery access.
Based on the electrocardiogram-synchronized cardiac CT after TAVI, the structure around the coronary artery origin and the aortic prosthesis were
It is converted into three dimensions and output as a polygon file (OBJ format).
The output OBJ file can be viewed in a VR environment.
By comparing with Evo MAP, which is introduced in the literature, you can select the optimal frame for coronary artery access.

Simulation of branch embolism during EVAR (endovascular aortic stent graft insertion)
AI automatically creates polygon files (OBJ format) for embolism simulation of the lumbar artery and inferior mesenteric artery in endovascular aortic stent graft repair (EVAR).
By using the created file in a virtual reality environment, you can intuitively understand the optimal approach direction to the branching blood vessels (either left or right) and the optimal catheter shape.

GUIDEYE Sword Aorta has three modes: PCI, PCI after TAVI, and EVAR.
It has all the functions of GUIDEYE station.
CPU version: It is affordable and can be run on PCs that do not have a GPU, but the analysis time takes about 20-30 minutes (depending on CPU specifications).
GPU version: A PC with a GPU is required. Analysis time is about 1-2 minutes.
