Analysis and Quantification of Endovascular Coils Distribution Inside Saccular Aneurysms Using Histological Images

摘要

ObjectiveEndovascular coiling is often performed first by placing coils along the aneurysm wall to create a frame and then by filling up the aneurysm core. However, little attention has been paid to quantify this filling strategy and to see how it changes for different packing densities. The purpose of this work is to analyze and quantify endovascular coil distribution inside aneurysms based on serial histological images of experimental aneurysms.
