By far not all the cardiology centers in the world operate on patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The surgery is a difficult one. It requires pinpoint precision and excellent skills as the surgeon approaches the thickened muscle through the aortic valve. Therefore, a 3D copy identical to the patient’s heart makes it possible to determine in advance the exact size of the piece of the heart muscle to be cut off.
