Abstract
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for manufacturing customized cardiovascular devices. In one implementation, patient cardiovascular data for a patient is received at a controller. The patient cardiovascular data is captured using a patient interface. A printing profile for a cardiovascular medical device is received at the controller. A patient specific three-dimensional model of the cardiovascular medical device customized for the patient using the patient cardiovascular data and the printing profile is generated. The patient specific three-dimensional model of the cardiovascular medical device is sliced into a plurality of outlines using the controller. Print instructions based on the plurality of outlines are generated using the controller. A polymeric material is manipulated according to the print instructions into a customized polymeric cardiovascular medical device for the patient. The customized polymeric cardiovascular medical device includes at least one micro-geometry.
