CLINICAL USE CASES AND TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS


CLINICAL USE CASES
  • Directly impacts the patient treatment pathway, both intra- and post-intervention.
  • Assess outcomes post-intervention: detect missed stenoses, distal occlusions, or microvascular disturbances.
  • Guide complementary therapies on the spot based on perfusion status.
  • May detect the no-reflow phenomenon — providing insight into cases where recovery may fail despite successful thrombectomy.
  • Potentially enables direct-to-angio workflows.

TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS
  • Full set of perfusion markers: CBF, CBV, MTT.
  • Advanced oxygen metabolism imaging: OEF, CMROâ‚‚.
  • Most reliable results with 10 CBCT acquisitions.
  • Vendor-agnostic platform.

CBCT Imaging

Side-by-side comparison: The left-hand side is the raw CBCT data, while the right-hand side panel is the pre-processed data.
Using CMN software in the angio suite delivers results comparable to conventional CT/MR perfusion.
