Radiology Rounds - August 2013 - Simulation as a Training Tool for Vascular Interventional Radiology
نویسندگان
چکیده
A high-fidelity physics-based simulator for use in vascular interventional radiology (IR), interventional cardiology, and vascular surgery offers the ability to: Insert actual guidewires and catheters with realistic haptic feedback View simulated fluoroscopic images that show two-dimensional (2D) displays of three-dimensional (3D) anatomy Change the angle of "fluoroscopic" views using controls at the side of the "fluoroscopic table" "Inject" contrast agents Training modules are available for a wide variety of vascular IR procedures with different levels of complexity and can simulate errors resulting in patient injury Simulation is being introduced as part of the curriculum for training radiology residents

متن کاملGuidelines for the prevention of intravascular catheter-related infections: recommendations relevant to interventional radiology for venous catheter placement and maintenance.
a g i m ( f p s r e p INTRODUCTION In the United States, 80,000 catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) occur in intensive care units (ICUs) each year (1), and a total of 250,000 cases of CRBSIs have been estimated to occur annually if entire hospitals are assessed (2). In the ICU, these infections independently increase hospital costs and length of stay (3), but have not generally bee...
متن کاملTraining standards for physicians performing uterine artery embolization for leiomyomata. Consensus statement developed by the Task Force on Uterine Artery Embolization and the Standards Division of the Society of Interventional Radiology--August 2000.
UTERINE artery embolization (UAE) is a therapy that offers an alternative to traditional surgical procedures such as myomectomy and hysterectomy for women with symptomatic leiomyomata (fibroids). The clinical experience and the published literature indicate that this is an effective and safe therapy (1–9). For patients to receive the best possible care before, during, and after the embolization...
متن کاملVirtual Reality Training In Interventional Radiology: The Johns Hopkins and Kent Ridge Digital Laboratory Experience
This article describes a personal computer-based system for simulation of image-guided cardiovascular interventional procedures for physician and technician training, education, patient-specific pretreatment planning, and therapeutic device design and evaluation. The system provides users with the ability to manipulate and interface interventional devices such as catheters, guide wires, stents,...
متن کاملMICCAI SPECIAL New approaches to catheter navigation for interventional radiology simulation
For over 20 years, interventional methods have improved the outcomes of patients with cardiovascular disease. However, these procedures require an intricate combination of visual and tactile feedback and extensive training. In this paper, we describe a series of novel approaches that have led to the development of a high-fidelity simulation system for interventional neuroradiology. In particula...
