DOI: 10.1002/ccd.26879
Abstract: The purpose of this work is to describe methods to measure the 3D angular orientation of cardiovascular structures based on a planar image of a valvuloplasty balloon. These methods facilitate X‐ray beam alignment with respect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951117000804
Abstract: Abstract Background Pulmonary balloon valvuloplasty is a safe and effective treatment for children with pulmonary valve stenosis. A few studies evaluate the long-term outcomes of the procedure, particularly the degree of pulmonary regurgitation. We evaluated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jocs.13821
Abstract: We present two patients who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support after bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement, who developed early structural valve failure due to leaflet fusion. Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty restored normal leaflet motion and allowed… read more here.
