Anatomical models are provided with simulated plaque, lesion, chronic
total occlusion, as well as other vascular diseases that more accurately
replicate these abnormalities. In such embodiment, the vascular disease
may be formed separate from the structured anatomical model. The formed
vascular disease material may then be bonded to or within a PVA material
in a separate process from forming this simulated vascular disease, thus
providing a replicated specific anatomy structure with an abnormality for
demonstrating, testing, and/or developing medical functions and/or
devices.
