3D Animation and Models to Aid Management of Fetal CDH

We wish to use the images a mother would have done as part of her normal medical care and make both 3D animations and 3D models of the baby and it's CDH. This will both help the parents see what the problem is and also allow the surgeons, who will operate on the baby once it has been born, to see the size of the hole and what organs are in the wrong place.
