Problem
Traditional vascular interventions often involve manual manipulation of guidewires, which can be time-consuming, increase radiation exposure for medical staff, and elevate the risk of complications such as vessel perforations or dissections. This manual approach can also limit precision in complex anatomical regions.
Solution
Flux offers an AI-powered robotic system designed to automate the precise positioning of endovascular tools using magnetic guidance. This technology enables contact-free navigation of guidewires, reducing the need for manual manipulation and thereby decreasing procedure times and minimizing complications. By automating tool tip positioning, Flux enhances accuracy and allows surgeons to perform complex interventions with greater confidence and reduced physical effort. The system aims to improve patient outcomes by facilitating safer, faster, and more precise minimally invasive vascular surgeries.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists performing minimally invasive endovascular procedures.
