Perceptive catheter system for thrombus retrieval and aneurysm embolization
Summary During catheter-based treatments, surgeons are hampered by the limited sensory awareness of microcatheters as they move through small, fragile, and mobile blood vessels. This lack of perception leads to a success rate of 25% in achieving complete reperfusion in a single attempt. The proposed system provides quantitative feedback on distance...
