015 Population based neurovascular modeling
- Radiology, New England Center for Stroke Research, University of Massachusetts, Worcester, MA, USA
Purpose: The goal of this study is to build a population representative silicone arterial model with lubricated lumen for easy deployment and testing of neuroendovascular devices.
Materials and Methods: We described previously a small batch manufacturing method by infusing silicone into a core shell structure for preparation of patient specific silicone vascular replicas. To evaluate the accessibility for neurovascular device delivery to the anterior intracranial circulation, an internal carotid artery (ICA)–middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation model with representative …
