Electroanatomical Navigation to Minimize Contrast Medium or X-Rays During Stenting: Insights From an Experimental Model

Stents can be effectively implemented with no x-rays or contrast medium. Modified stents were successfully implanted in 9 of 11 attempted targets (82%) (7 carotid and 4 coronary arteries) using an impedance-sensitive navigation system and optical coherence tomography. Electroanatomical navigation sy...

Sumario:Stents can be effectively implemented with no x-rays or contrast medium. Modified stents were successfully implanted in 9 of 11 attempted targets (82%) (7 carotid and 4 coronary arteries) using an impedance-sensitive navigation system and optical coherence tomography. Electroanatomical navigation systems can be used to assist interventionalists in performing arterial stenting while minimizing x-ray and contrast use, thereby potentially enhancing safety for both patients and catheterization laboratory staff members.
