Computed tomography (CT) provides high-resolution images of the aortic valve with clear localization of calcium deposition. Three-dimensional (3D) stereolithographic printing can be used to convert these data into a physical model [(1,2)][1]. We hypothesized that patient-specific, multimaterial, 3D
