Uterine Artery Embolization is a simulation software module from Mentice designed to train interventional radiologists and gynecologists in the minimally invasive procedure of uterine artery embolization (UAE). The module offers a realistic, image-guided environment for practicing the navigation, catheterization, and embolization of uterine arteries to treat conditions such as uterine fibroids and postpartum hemorrhage. The software supports step-by-step procedural learning, including vascular access, selective angiography, and delivery of embolic agents, while providing immediate feedback on technique and outcomes. It is integrated with the VIST simulation platforms, supporting both individual and team-based training, and is regularly updated to reflect current clinical standards and device technologies.
