JNIS: A new set of eyes: development of a novel microangioscope for neurointerventional surgery

Peer-reviewed proof-of-concept paper describing the development of a miniaturized microangioscope designed for neurointerventional procedures and demonstrating early preclinical intravascular visualization performance in an in vivo animal model.

Publication: Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery 11(10):1036-1039 (Oct 2019). Epub Mar 16, 2019.

What it covers:
- Design evolution and key engineering choices for a microangioscope compatible with neurovascular anatomy.
- Preclinical demonstration of intravascular imaging performance in an in vivo porcine model.
- Example neurointerventional applications enabled by direct endoluminal visualization (as an adjunct to conventional imaging).
