Guidewire Manipulation Based on Establishment of Stereo Perception in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Traditional percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) relies on two-dimensional X-ray imaging, but this does not allow depth perception and complicates precise manipulation of the guidewire. Our purpose was to develop a novel method for guidewire manipulation by establishing stereoscopic perception in coronary angiography (CAG), as described in our previous study, and thereby improve the precision and success rate of PCI.

Methods

Based on establishment of stereo perception in CAG, we used digital subtraction angiography (DSA) with gantry rotation and simulation with UG NX software to determine the orientation of the guidewire tip and the relative positions of the true lumen and false lumen. We then performed verification using a highly realistic 3D-printed transpar
