Review of New Master/Slave Catheter Driving Vascular Intervention Robot System: Intervention Radiologist's Perspective

Review of New Master / Slave Catheter Driving Vascular Intervention Robot System : Intervention Radiologist ’ s Perspective

The interventional procedure is a new treatment modality that treats specific disease via percutaneous, minimally invasive manipulation using various devices such as a guidewire, catheter, balloon, and stent under the various imaging modalities such as ultrasound, fluoroscopy (X-ray radiography), computed tomography and magnetic resonance image. It does not need a large surgical incision. Its a...

Early intervention--a family perspective.

Angiography for Peripheral Vascular Intervention

The use of endovascular technique for peripheral vascular disease (PVD) has evolved and new devices and techniques were being developed. Even after recent development of noninvasive diagnosis of PVD, angiography is still the gold standard for the evaluation of stenotic and occluded lesions. Without precise angiographic information, endovascular therapy can not be performed. In this chapter, the...

Vascular pharmacology: opportunities for intervention.

The vascular wall, composed of adventitia, smooth muscle cells, and an endothelium, is no longer viewed as a static structure but rather as a highly mutable organ responsive to the local mechanical, hemodynamic, and neurohumoral milieus. The vasculature, along with the heart, distributes nutrient blood flow throughout the body. Resistance in the microvasculature is critical to regulation of art...
