A computer program product comprising:
- a signal-bearing medium bearing
- (a) one or more instructions for accepting one or more blood vessel sleeve dimensions based on blood vessel data from an individual;
- and
- (b) one or more instructions for making a rapid-prototyped blood vessel sleeve at least partly based on the one or more blood vessel sleeve dimensions.
The computer program product of claim 66, wherein the signal-bearing medium includes a computer-readable medium.
The computer program product of claim 66, wherein the signal-bearing medium includes a recordable medium.
The computer program product of claim 66, wherein the signal-bearing medium includes a communications medium.
A system comprising:
- a computing device;
- and
- instructions that when executed on the computing device cause the computing device to
- (a) accept blood vessel sleeve dimensions based on blood vessel data from an individual;
- and
- (b) make a rapid-prototyped blood vessel sleeve at least partly based on the one or more blood vessel sleeve dimensions.
