Smart wire could help doctors see inside blocked arteries
NCT ID NCT06112054
Summary
This study tested a special sensor-tipped guidewire to see if it could identify different types of tissue inside blocked leg arteries. The device was used during standard artery-opening procedures in 19 patients with peripheral artery disease. The goal was to see if the sensor could reliably measure and distinguish between artery wall, plaque, and blood clots to potentially help guide treatment.
