【Animal Modeling】-What is the 3D visualization modeling of the blood vessels in the kidney of miniature pigs?

  Objective: To explore the significance and application of 3D visualization modeling of miniature pig renal blood vessels?

  Method: Choose a pair of freshly separated miniature pig kidneys and infuse the abdominal aorta with "epoxy resin". The lead oxide "filler (red) and epoxy titanium dioxide" filler was injected into the posterior vena cava (yellow, right renal vein ligation) to make a plaster, and then a 128-slice spiral CT scan was performed. Use the software to collect a 2D image data set. Do you perform vascular threshold segmentation and reconstruct a 3D visualization model of the blood vessels of the pig kidney?

  Result: Mimics19.0 software was used to successfully reconstruct three models-piglet renal blood vessel dimensional visualization model. Does the renal artery and renal vein distribution and route of the model match the casting? Also, is the blood vessel segmented to show the renal artery and vein or only the renal artery, which is ideal and three-dimensional?

  Conclusion: Minibuta renal blood vessel 3D visualization model reconstructed based on vascular cast specimens is effectively segmented. This is urology. Do research and virtual surgery training lay the foundation for the simulation platform and provide important guidance?
