Kurt Anton Amplatz (1924-2019) was an influential Austrian radiologist and medical device inventor, renowned for his contributions to cardiology. He developed the Amplatzer Septal Occluder and Amplatzer Cribriform Occluder, innovative devices designed for closing atrial septal defects, a prevalent congenital heart issue in infants. These devices can be inserted via percutaneous catheter techniques, minimizing the need for open heart surgery. Amplatz also played a pivotal role in advancing heart catheterization techniques, performing one of the first percutaneous catheterizations in 1958. His extensive career included a significant leadership role at the University of Minnesota.
