Patent ID: 7996272

Claim:
A system for designing and ordering a stent graft, the system comprising: a user interface for designing and ordering the stent graft, the user interface comprising; a selection portion for selecting a stent graft design; and a design portion for entering a plurality of design parameters related to the stent graft design; a centralised data processor remote from and in communication with the user interface for processing and storing information entered into the user interface; the centralised data processor comprising a data store arrangement to store data relating to design parameters of a stent graft; the data store also containing a 3-dimensional view of a patient stent graft site sourced from patient measurements for comparison with a completed stent graft design; and a processing arrangement to process required design parameters related to the stent graft design to produce the completed stent graft design, the user interface further comprising; a verification portion to verify details of a completed stent graft design, the verification portion including a design verification screen to display a view of the completed stent graft design; the view being a 3-dimensional view of the completed stent graft design; and the 3-dimensional view being reorientable to inspect the completed stent graft design; an overlay portion to overlay the completed stent graft design in the 3-dimensional view with the 3 -dimensional view of a patient stent graft site from the data store; and an ordering portion to enable a user to order the completed stent graft design.
