Abstract
The present invention relates to an interventional procedure simulation system, comprising a control unit and an interface unit, said control unit communication with said interface unit to simulate handling of at least one instrument interfaced by said interface unit. The instrument is a self expanding tool inserted inside a simulated vessel and simulated with respect to a set value representing a stiffness of said vessel, a rest diameter of said self expanding tool, a vessel initial inner diameter and spring constant for said tool.
