Cathlas vs AngioAID 3D

The progress of technology allows for the delivery of a collection of rare and important video images to users in a practical way that cannot be similarly produced via textbooks or peer-reviewed journals. The app is designed to cultivate and integrate contributions from users who would like to add educational images, videos and data that will enrich the knowledge of the interventional cardiology peers community. The moderation and inclusion of images will be processed by experts in the field prior to their publication online. DISCLAIMER: Cathlas has been developed as a reference aid only, and no guarantees are made regarding the completeness or adequacy of the representations shown and information conveyed by the app. The app will not be liable for any claims arising from its use. Please seek a doctor's advice in addition to using the app and before making any medical decisions. This app does not contain any personal information. Cathlas includes angiographic videos in various topics – for example: Anatomy of coronary arteries with focus on coronary anomalies • Coronary angiography videos with corresponding CT images • Explore and learn to recognize complications • Images of congenital heart disease and right heart catheterization hemodynamics • Unique images of coronary bypass grafting and acute coronary syndrome • Left ventriculogram and aortogram • Mechanical valve fluoroscopies – learn to recognize different valves, normal angels of opening and closing • Intracoronary imaging with intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography images • How to recognize device in fluoroscopy • Rare and important incidental findings on fluoroscopy • Structural cases of TAVR, mitral clip, TMVR, Watchman… • Practice your diagnostic skills with set of heart catheterization videos • Explore high-quality heart catheterization images

AngioAID 3D is educational tool designed to teach key concepts of diagnostic angiography of coronary arteries. Developed at the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, New York State's highest volume cardiac cath lab, we aim to provide an interactive learning experience on this important topic. Within a 3D live simulation, you begin by advancing a diagnostic guidewire into the aortic root. Then, advance one of many diagnostic catheter options to either the right of left coronary ostium. Through pushing and pulling, as well as rotation of the catheter, try to achieve a truly co-axial engagement of the coronary ostium with the catheter. Meanwhile monitor the hemodynamic tab which simulated damping from over-engagement or roofing of the catheter tip. Line up the view with the target view, zoom to fill the screen with he coronaries, and rotate the C-Arm LAO/RAO and Cranial/Caudal until you're where you think you need to be. Finally, inject dye and take a cine to compare with the one we actually did in the cath lab for this set of coronaries. In addition to the diagnostic simulation, "Review Mode" allows you to play with angles and panning while always being able to see the vessels with no dye injection needed. Also a collection of key topics have been included within the review mode such as key angiographic angles depending on what you're aiming to see clearly, vessel segmentation conventions, and more coronary anatomy and angiography pearls. We highly recommend you view the tutorial video that is available when you first open the application or from the settings page to understand all of the available functions. The first launch has a normal set of coronary arteries but please stay tuned while we create more sets of coronaries such as anomalous coronaries and bypass grafts.
