Coronary stent designs have undergone significant transformations in geometry, materials, and drug elution coatings, contributing to the continuous improvement of stenting success over recent decades. However, the increasing use of…
Coronary stents have changed the way in which coronary artery diseases are managed. Although bare-metal stents can be traced back to 1994, long term efficacy of these stents has been shattered by ISR (In-Stent restenosis) and late stent…
Coronary angioplasty with stent implantation is the most frequently used interventional treatment for coronary artery disease. However, reocclusion within the stent, referred to as in-stent restenosis, occurs in up to 10% of lesions. It is…
Coronary angiography is the "gold standard" for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD). At present, the methods for detecting and evaluating coronary artery stenosis cannot satisfy the clinical needs, e.g., there is no prior study of…

Studying surface modification has long been a key area for enhancing the effects of vascular stents after surgery. The study aimed to develop an asymmetric drug-eluting stent (ADES) with differential drug loading on its inner and outer…
Coronary angiography continues to serve as the primary method for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD), which is the leading global cause of mortality. The severity of CAD is quantified by the location, degree of narrowing (stenosis),…
From the perspective of coronary heart disease, the development of stents has come significantly far in reducing the associated mortality rate, drug-eluting stents being the epitome of innovative and effective solutions. Within this work,…
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the dominant cause of death and hospitalization across the globe. Atherosclerosis, an inflammatory condition that gradually narrows arteries and has potentially fatal effects, is the most frequent cause of…
As experts continue to debate the optimal surgery practice for coronary disease - percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary aortic bypass graft (CABG) - computational tools may provide a quantitative assessment of each option.…
Despite extensive research during the last decades, coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the number one cause of death, responsible for near 50% of global mortality. A main reason for this is that CAD has a complex inheritance and etiology…
Coronary Artery Diseases although preventable are one of the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Due to the onerous nature of diagnosis, tackling CADs has proved challenging. This study addresses the automation of resource-intensive and…
Cerebral vasospasm, a prolonged constriction of cerebral arteries, is the first cause of morbidity and mortality for patients who survive hospitalisation after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. The recent finding that stent-retrievers…
Assessing the severity of stenoses in coronary angiography is critical to the patient's health, as coronary stenosis is an underlying factor in heart failure. Current practice for grading coronary lesions, i.e. fractional flow reserve (FFR)…
The coronary artery disease (CAD) involves narrowing and damaging the major blood vessels has become the most life threating disease in the world especially in south Asian reason. Although outstanding medical facilities are available in…
Coronary artery disease(CAD) is the most common type of heart disease and the leading cause of death worldwide[1]. A progressive state of this disease marked by plaque rupture and clot formation in the coronary arteries, also known as an…
Coronary stenosis is a major risk factor for ischemic heart events leading to increased mortality, and medical treatments for this condition require meticulous, labor-intensive analysis. Coronary angiography provides critical visual cues…
In this paper we introduce a new method simulating stent graft deployment for assisting endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. The method relies on intraoperative images coupled with mechanical models. A multi-step algorithm has…
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is a leading cause of death in the modern world. The development of modern analytical tools for diagnostics and treatment of CHD is receiving substantial attention from the scientific community. Deep…
This research aims to develop a method to reduce the time cost and complexity of balloon expandable stent simulations in cardiovascular stenting procedures for Peripheral Artery Disease. The study uses stereoscopic images to construct a…
