Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement (10) for implementing kissing balloons simulating a bifurcated vessel, comprising a first catheter (4) having a first inflatable balloon (6) at or near its distal portion, a second catheter (7) having a second inflatable balloon (7a) at or near its distal portion, wherein the first catheter comprises a holding element (4) provided on the said first balloon (6), the said holding element (4) being adapted for: allowing the distal portion of the second catheter (7) to pass there through; affixing the second catheter (7) in a proximal vicinity to the first catheter (4) so that, in use, respective facing surfaces of the inflated first balloon (6) and the inflated second balloon (7a) touch each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to a kit of parts suitable for preparing a cured biocompatible silicone polymer material including an X-ray contrast agent, the kit comprising two or more containers containing a fluid component, which components—when mixed—form a fluid curable biocompatible polymer composition, which upon curing forms the cured biocompatible silicone polymer material, wherein a first container contains a fluid component A, which component A comprises a curable silicone (pre-)polymer and a curing agent and which component A is essentially free of curing catalyst and metallic X-ray contrast agent particles, and a second container contains a fluid component B, which component B is a dispersion comprising metallic X-ray contrast agent particles and which is essentially free of curing agent.
