Fabrication of tissue leaflets tailored to the anatomical specifications of aortic and mitral positions.
Evaluation of the structural integrity, mechanical behavior, and functional performance of the tissue constructs.
Demonstrated the technical feasibility of fabricating tissue leaflets suitable for mounting in aortic and mitral valve prostheses.
Evaluated leaflet pliability and physical characteristics necessary to withstand hemodynamic pressures in cardiac valve positions.
