Reduction of Radiation Exposure during Endovascular Treatment of Peripheral Arterial Disease Combining Fiber Optic RealShape Technology and Intravascular Ultrasound

Vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists face chronic exposure to low-dose radiation during endovascular procedures, which may impact their ...

The evolution of endovascular surgery over the past 30 years has made it possible to treat increasingly complex vascular pathologies with an endovascular method. Although this generally speeds up the patient's recovery, the risks of health problems caused by long-term exposure to radioactive radiation increase. This warrants the demand for radiation-reducing tools to reduce radiation exposure during these procedures.

New tools to reduce radiation exposure during aortic endovascular procedures.

Report of a successful case of endovascular recanalization of an occluded superficial femoral artery (SFA) using Fiber Optic RealShape (FORS) technology.

Superficial Femoral Artery Recanalization Using Fiber Optic RealShape Technology.

Tortuous arteries may be associated with carotid dissection. The intima disruption caused by a carotid dissection is a possible cause of extracranial carotid artery aneurysms (ECAAs). The aim was to investigate if carotid tortuosity is also associated with ECAA in patients without presence or history of a carotid artery dissection.
