Scientists create novel anti-thrombogenic coatings to overcome endovascular therapy challenges

Credit: Scientific Reports (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-65832-5 A researcher at AIST, in collaboration with the Japan Medical Startup Incubation Program (JMPR) and N.B. Medical Corporation, has developed a novel anti-thrombogenic coating for stents used in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The details of this technology were published in Scientific Reports on July 10, 2024. In recent years, due to progress in medical equipment, minimally invasive endovascular treatment has become the mainstream in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms, the main cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage. In particular, coil embolization with a stent has been reported to be highly safe and effective, and is Read More
