Imaging, analysis and workflow assistance for angioplasty

By analyzing VasoCT volumetric images using neural networks, the system automatically identifies the adhesion between the stent and the vessel wall, generating the optimal observation angle. This solves the problem of difficult detection of poor stent adhesion in existing technologies, and improves the efficiency and safety of intravascular procedures.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies struggle to efficiently and accurately detect and correct stent misalignment during intravascular procedures, leading to potential health complications such as thrombosis. Furthermore, current methods are time-consuming, rely on manual analysis, and are prone to errors.

Method used

The VasoCT volumetric image is analyzed using a neural network to automatically identify the fit between the stent and the vessel wall, and generate a 3D distance map and the best viewing angle to help interventional physicians quickly correct poor fit.

Benefits of technology

It enables early detection and correction of stent misfit, reduces the time and resource consumption of manual analysis, improves the accuracy and safety of the process, and reduces health risks.

Abstract

A system includes a processor in communication with a memory. The processor is configured to receive one or more images of an implantable device within a vascular system; extract at least one image feature from the one or more images, the at least one image feature indicating the position of the implantable device relative to the vascular wall of the vascular system; and select at least one view based on the at least one image feature for optimal observation of a medical procedure involving the deployment of the implantable device to the vascular wall.
