“Physical Twins” of Human Arteries Predict Individual Stroke Risk
Researchers in Australia have developed an 'artery-on-a-chip' platform that uses 3D-printed physical twins of patient arteries to better predict stroke risk. This technology aims to improve personalized treatment by accounting for unique vascular shapes and blood flow patterns.
Scientists in Australia have developed an artery-on-a-chip platform that can replicate a patient’s exact vascular structure to better assess their risk of ischemic stroke. Results published today in Cell Biomaterials show that differences in artery shape explain significant differences in stroke risk seen between patients with similar levels of artery narrowing.
