Journal Article
Aneurysm hemodynamics: an experimental study.
TL;DR: A canine model was used to study the hemodynamics of lateral, bifurcation, and terminal aneurysms with angiography and color Doppler techniques to support earlier in vitro work and provide further evidence that not all aneurYSms share similar stresses.
Patent
Dual coil medical retrieval device
TL;DR: In this article, two small snare coils are joined at their distal ends (68, 70) to form a loop, and the proximal ends of the coils are attached to one or more elongated actuator members (20, 22).
Journal Article
Flow dynamics of lateral carotid artery aneurysms and their effects on coils and balloons: an experimental study in dogs.
TL;DR: The hemodynamic characteristics of lateral carotid artery aneurysms in a canine model are investigated and their influence on coils and balloons is determined to be of shapes and sizes that do not conform to the inflow and outflow zones.
Journal Article
Treatment of carotid artery aneurysms with platinum coils: an experimental study in dogs.
TL;DR: Flower petal coils with silk fibers were effective in producing thrombosis of the aneurysms, suggesting that coils of the appropriate design may be useful in the endovascular treatment of aneurYSms.
Journal Article
Treatment of Experimental Canine Carotid Aneurysms with Platinum Coils
TL;DR: GDC coils produced an average reduction in aneurysm lumen size of 95% without any associated parent-artery occlusions, and the ability to remove, reposition, and detach a coil was the most significant feature of the GDC coil.
