X-ray fluoroscopy demonstrates the establishment of the in vivo swine model. Top left image demonstrates introduction of device (18 French) through right jugular vein into the suprahepatic IVC. Top right image demonstrates the device tip in the suprahepatic IVC with guide wire securing access into the right hepatic vein. Bottom left image demonstrates a venogram through the device and the patency of hepatic veins and supra-hepatic IVC. Bottom right, a venogram demonstrates a filling defect in the suprahepatic IVC just inferior to the catheter tip after resin introduction into the catheter tip. Collateral flow to the heart is visualized through the azygos venous system.
