Accurate measurement of blood vessel diameter on ultrasonic images is important in many vascular exams. In one of them, volumetric blood flow measurements, the volume flow rate is calculated by multiplying the time-averaged velocity with the cross-se...
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this proof-of-concept study was to demonstrate the setup and feasibility of transcarotid access for remote robotic neurointerventions in a cadaveric model.
OBJECTIVE: Over the past 2 decades, robots have been increasingly used in surgeries to help overcome human limitations and perform precise and accurate tasks. Endovascular robots were pioneered in interventional cardiology, however, the CorPath GRX w...

The robotic-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention is an emerging technology with great potential to solve the shortcomings of existing treatments. However, the current robotic systems can not manipulate two guidewires or ballons/stents simultan...
Interventional cardiovascular medicine has seen constant progress over the last few decades. Since the first angiograms and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty were carried out, this progress has been tremendous and has led to a substantia...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine whether the back-propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) model could be constructed to accurately in predicting early occlusion of bilateral plastic stent placement for inoperable hilar cholangiocarcin...
In computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA), calcification and stent make it difficult to evaluate intravascular lumen. This is a cause of low positive-predictive value of coronary stenosis. Therefore, it is expected to develop a computer-aide...
