Mimics Enlight
A structural heart planning application that transforms patient CT data into interactive 3D models — giving interventional cardiologists the spatial clarity to plan procedures with precision and confidence. It built on the planning software I licensed to Materialise from Henry Ford.
The Challenge
Interventional cardiologists planning structural heart procedures face a critical gap: 2D imaging cannot adequately convey the spatial complexity of patient anatomy. Suboptimal device sizing and planning carry serious clinical risk. The challenge was to design a workflow that made 3D anatomical data navigable and clinically actionable — reducing cognitive load under time pressure while supporting precise, confident decision-making.
UX Research & Interaction Design
Designed the clinical workflow for anatomy navigation, precise measurement tools, and multi-phase procedural planning — translating complex 3D imaging data into clear, actionable interfaces for time-pressured clinical environments. Contextual research with interventional cardiologists and imaging specialists informed the information architecture and interaction patterns that support confident decision-making at each planning stage. I worked side by side with Materialise’s global engineering and product teams at its Belgium headquarters every day to bring the designs to life.
Outcome
A more precise, lower-friction planning experience for interventional cardiologists — giving structural heart teams the spatial clarity to size devices, measure anatomy, and plan TAVR, mitral, and LAA procedures with greater confidence and fewer ambiguities. The software is now used by cardiologists around the world.
