In this paper, we present a novel guide-wired helical microrobot for mechanical thrombectomy in cardiovascular system, especially for calcified thrombus therapeutics. We designed and fabricated a prototype of the helical shape microrobot equipped wit...
Computed tomography angiography (CTA) collateral scoring can identify patients most likely to benefit from mechanical thrombectomy and those more likely to have good outcomes and ranges from 0 (no collaterals) to 3 (complete collaterals). In this stu...
BACKGROUND: Endovascular thrombectomy (ET) is the standard of care for treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to large vessel occlusion. The elderly population has been under-represented in clinical trials on ET, and recent studies have r...
Background and Purpose- The clinical course of acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion (LVO) is a multifactorial process with various prognostic factors. We aimed to model this process with machine learning and predict the long-term clinica...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Acute stroke caused by large vessel occlusions (LVOs) requires emergent detection and treatment by endovascular thrombectomy. However, radiologic LVO detection and treatment is subject to variable delays and human expertise, r...
Exact histological clot composition remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to identify the best imaging variables to be extrapolated on clot composition and clarify variability in the imaging of thrombi by non-contrast CT. Using a CT-phantom ...
PURPOSE: Ischemic lesion volume (ILV) is an important radiological predictor of functional outcome in patients with anterior circulation stroke. Our aim was to assess the agreement between automated ILV measurements on NCCT using the Brainomix softwa...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this paper was to assess the feasibility of robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (RN) with inferior vena cava thrombectomy (RRVCT) and compare perioperative and oncological outcomes of this approach to open surgery for renal tumo...
Robotic interventional neuroradiology is an emerging field with the potential to enhance patient safety, reduce occupational hazards, and expand systems of care. Endovascular robots allow the operator to precisely control guidewires and catheters fro...
