Experimental Analysis of Transseptal Puncture to Investigate the Mechanical Properties of Fossa Ovalis

<i>Background/Objective</i>: Optimization of needle characteristics for trans-septal puncture is of paramount importance to reduce the extent of tissue deformation. This was achieved by studying the mechanical behavior of fossa ovalis (FO) in lamb hearts. The fossa ovalis tissue samples...
