pig head vascular model
#SV-PHV-001-Y
The pig head vascular model features all main vascular pathway of a average pig, ideal for rehearsing catheter navigation and many other techniques.
Our Pig Head Vascular Model offers a life-size, highly detailed replication of one half of a pig's head, featuring all major vasculature with an impressive minimum vessel diameter of 2.5mm. Weighing over 6kg and measuring 385 x 155 x 90 mm, this model is ideal for pre-animal testing, allowing researchers to perform realistic, reliable trials in conditions that closely mimic live scenarios. Designed to support the 3R principles (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement), it aims to reduce the reliance on live animal trials while providing an invaluable tool for advancing research and medical device development.
highlights
true-to-life vascular replication
Derived from real animal data with an impressive 0.03mm tolerance, this model ensures a highly precise and lifelike representation of head vasculature, ideal for training, testing, and R&D.
realistic feel
Crafted with an ultra-smooth finish, the model closely simulates the friction and feel of human vasculature, ensuring realistic handling during simulated medical procedures.
leak-proof barb-to-Luer compatibility
Our models feature a fully integrated barb geometry within the silicone for leak-tight performance, when used with industry standard barb-to-Luer connectors. This design ensures compatibility with a wide range of medical devices and provides reliable, leak-proof functionality, making it ideal for various medical applications.
tailored to your specifications
With multiple silicone compounds and color options, the model is fully customizable to ensure optimal performance in any scenario or application.
