title: Stent implantation to ductus arteriosus in a patient with interrupted aortic arch guided by CT image overlay.
abstract: A 15-day-old premature patient with ventricular septal defect and interrupted aortic arch type B underwent "hybrid" initial treatment consisting of bilateral pulmonary artery banding followed by stenting of the ductus arteriosus. A pre-registered CT scan was re-purposed with a new three-dimensional image fusion software (VesselNavigator) to create a roadmap for stent delivery.
