the reconstructed three-dimensional image of whole human
artery related to endovascular intervention. Afterward, the three-
dimensional image of Fig. 3.43b was generated by removing vessel
branch with 1
mm or less in diameter because they are unrelated to
this surgery. Then we constructed membranous vascular model with
1 mm in wall thickness of this structure using transparent silicone
elastomer as shown in Fig. 3.44.
