or recommending a workflow for similar cases. Measurement tools have been added to quantify elliptical shapes to export for advanced analyses, multi-planar re-slice for comparing common clinical measurements from specific anatomical planes, curve planar reslice to easily quantify a narrowing in a tubular structure, as well as enhancements to the center- line tools. For cardiovascular professionals designing stents, valves, CRM devices or benchtop models, beginning with image data is helpful and the updated Mimics release saves time and increases consistency with semiautomated coronary segmentation tools and mask-morphing technology for 4D segmentation. In addition, users can improve visualization with a link between 3D view and fluoroscopy angles and per- form TAVI/TAVR (transcatheter aortic valve replacement) valve sizing and planning. Materialise

techniques in a single CAD program. The main enhancement in the new release is the ability to rewind the solid history tree of a model to any position using a graphical slider. Edits can then be made, either by applying the Solid Doctor to repair problematic data or by using the full range of direct modeling tools in PowerShape, without losing the history of the model. Once the required edits have been completed, the rewind point can be moved or deleted; the complete solid history is then rebuilt automatically. PowerShape Pro combines these
