PANVIS STAR Robot Validates Five Neurointerventional Procedures in Preclinical Study
The PANVIS STAR, a new neurointerventional robotic system developed by Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Biomedical Robot Co., Ltd. in collaboration with Shanghai Changhai Hospital, completed successful preclinical animal studies. Tested on a porcine model, it validated five major neurointerventional procedures including cerebral angiography, aneurysm coil embolization, and artery stenting. The robot performed complex catheter and guidewire navigation and device deployment, while manual tasks were limited to sheath insertion and device exchange. The study was published in the Journal of Robotic Surgery.
