Abstract

Introduction: Preserved congenital heart specimens have been an important component of training professionals working with children and adults with congenital heart disease. However, such specimens are becoming scarce, and the existing ones are deteriorating. They are curated in few institutions worldwide and not freely available. We have a duty to adopt available modern imaging technology to help preserve these specimens for posterity and education. This was a proof of concept project to explore the use of advanced cardiac imaging modalities (HRCT and CMR) and Virtual Reality (VR) simulation to assess the feasibility and identify the best method of imaging curated cardiac pathology specimens.
