Abstract

We fabricated a transparent arteriole membrane model by grayscale lithography. Employed fabrication method was using a wax and polyvinyl alcohol mixture as a novel molding material for fabricating a sacrificial model. Our objective was to complement previous surgical simulators for practice and rehearsal of medical treatments. Since block vessel models cannot recreate the moderate compliance that is generally seen in real blood vessels, we proposed a method for fabricating a transparent membranous arteriole model having a circular cross-section less than 500[μm] in diameter. Here, we describe the fabrication of our model and the evaluation results of our new molding material.
