Computed poststenotic flow instabilities correlate phenotypically with vibrations measured using laser Doppler vibrometry : perspectives for a promising in vivo device for early detection of moderate and severe carotid stenosis [PDF]
Early detection of asymptomatic carotid stenosis is crucial for treatment planning in the prevention of ischemic stroke. Auscultation, the current first-line screening methodology, comes with severe limitations that create urge for novel and robust ...

Simulation of a mechanical thrombectomy device based in the use of self-expandable stents for the blood clots extraction [PDF]
Recently, we have presented some studies concerning the analysis, design and optimization of one experimental device developed in the UK - GPTAD - which has been designed to remove blood clots without the need to make contact with the clot itself ...

Prosthetic bypass for restenosis after endarterectomy or stenting of the carotid artery [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of prosthetic carotid bypass (PCB) with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in treatment of restenosis after CEA or carotid artery ...
