  • Publication number: 20230245592
    Abstract: Medical training model having at least one blood vessel model (1) which in at least one practice region can be connected to an anatomically replicated substitute blood circulation system (2) and in which a real instrument (17) is used, further having an image recording device (3) for creating measured images of the at least one blood vessel model (1), and having an image processing device (11) which converts the recorded measured images into an imaging blood vessel representation and makes same displayable on a screen (12), wherein the image recording device (3) is designed as a photo-optical system (8) which records transmitted-light images (13) as measured images of the at least one blood vessel model (1) for simulation of medical activity, for which purpose the at least one blood vessel model (1) is replicated in a transparently produced solid-bdy block (4) for a contrast between transparent solid-body block (4) and non-transparent instrument (17).

  • Publication number: 20220392376
    Abstract: Medical training model with additively manufactured, individualized vessel models (10) which can be interchangeably connected in at least one training region to the fluid system (2) of an anatomically replicated training model with the respective patient-specifically replicated lumen, wherein the fluid system (2) simulates a blood circulation replacement system, wherein a vessel model (10) reproduced with patient-specific geometry can be connected to the fluid system (2) via a hydraulic quick coupling, the hydraulic quick coupling comprises as coupling pieces a plug and a sleeve or bushing, which are each provided with an inner flow channel for sealed connection when the coupling pieces are joined together, wherein in each case one of the coupling pieces is designed as an adapter on the connection side of the vessel model (10) with a flow channel course of varying diameter which connects the lumen of the patient-specific vessel model (10) to a standardized coupling connection opening.
