Abstract: There is described a computer-implemented method for creating a training scenario to perform a percutaneous coronary intervention using an elongated instrument and a patient simulator, the computer-implemented method comprising: receiving a desired position for a lesion; receiving a desired value for at least one property of the lesion; configuring a haptic feedback to be applied on the elongated instrument when received in the patient simulator based on the desired location for the lesion and the desired value for the properties of the lesion, the haptic feedback; and outputting the haptic feedback, the desired position and the desired value for the properties.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the simulation or digital synthesis of echographic images, characterised by the direct transformation in real time, or quasi real time, of the information contained in a 3D scanographic (or tomodensitometric) medical or veterinary image, without delimitation or segmentation of the bodies or structures contained in the volume of scanographic data, according to at least one two-dimensional observation window which can be modified in real time, or quasi real time, in terms of the dimension, position, directions and orientation thereof, the characteristics thereof depending on the type of virtual echographic probe determined, and reproducing all of the attenuation, reflection, refraction and dispersion effects, and the regulation effects of a real echographic image, each echographic image supplied cumulating the results of the simulations of the pre-cited effects.
