Stroke Interventions
Overview
- Stroke treatment requires rapid intervention to prevent severe disability or death.
- Mechanical thrombectomy is the used for large vessel occlusions but is limited by access to specialists.
- We aim to autonomously navigate endovascular tools using pre-operative imaging and motion planning.
Our Approach
- Flexible tool modeling: Predicts guidewire and catheter behavior for controlled movement.
- Contact-aware motion planning: Interacts with vessel anatomy for precise tool navigation.
- Cost-effective actuation: Uses standard endovascular catheterization tools without requiring specialized hardware.
