The invention discloses an improved and simplified modeling method of a rat middle cerebral artery embolism ischemia model and an auxiliary precise thrombus pushing device.According to the modeling method, standardized thrombus embolism is prepared through an in-vitro step, and the modeling method comprises the steps that blood is incubated in a PE-50 catheter at the specific temperature for the specific time to form initial thrombus; the diameter is accurately controlled to be smaller than 0.14 mm through reciprocating push-pull and negative pressure folding suction of a PE-10 catheter; then, loading the emboli by using a normalized vascular catheter with a 20mm pre-mark; during modeling, the catheter is inserted to a preset depth through an external carotid artery, and the thrombus is pushed into a target blood vessel at a constant speed of 10-20 [mu] L / min by means of an auxiliary precise thrombus pushing device. The core problems of poor thrombus quality and low model stability and repeatability of a traditional method are effectively solved by optimizing the whole process of thrombus preparation, catheter specification, pushing rate and verification standard in combination with a special device, the success rate of the model can reach 90% or above, and an efficient and reliable experimental tool is provided for cerebral apoplexy research.

Devices and methods for vascular navigation, assessment and / or diagnosis are described which determine the location of the tip of a vascular catheter using the introduction of a medium with a measurable parameter (e.g., temperature, light reflection, sound reflection, etc.) and sensing and measuring the measurable parameter as the catheter is advanced. Measurements of the parameter are tracked over time, recorded and analyzed. The value of the parameter and / or the shape of the parameter value vs. time curve may be used in the analysis. For example, curve amplitude, variability, standard deviation, slope, etc. may be used in the analysis of catheter location.
