Party | Purpose for inclusion in feedback | How would three-dimensional (3D) modelling be useful to this party? |
Researcher | Strong cardiovascular background but likely limited experience with cardiac imaging and congenital heart disease. | Appreciation of anatomy across different congenital coronary artery diseases; potential use of models in future research. |
Cardiac surgeon | Experienced with cardiac anatomy, pathology and imaging; specific focus on potential use of models for preoperative assessment. | Understanding specific visuospatial anatomy abnormality; preoperative planning and practice. |
Radiologist/imaging expert | Extremely experienced with imaging; assessing whether 3D models improve/complement appreciation from CT alone. | Visuospatial appreciation of abnormality in addition to what they see on scans. |
Cardiologist | Experienced with cardiac anatomy, pathology and imaging; assessing whether models can improve/complement understanding. | Use for complex cases with difficult coronary anatomy; support management decisions based on measurable dimensions. |
