Spryte Medical
Spryte Medical is developing the first neuro Optical Coherence Tomography (nOCT) platform, bringing high-resolution intravascular imaging inside the brain for the first time. The system uses a micro-optical fiber probe to navigate tortuous neurovascular anatomy, providing micrometer-resolution cross-sectional images at more than 10x the resolution of current imaging systems. The AI-powered platform is designed for neurointerventionalists treating brain aneurysms, ischemic stroke, and intracranial atherosclerotic disease.

Problem
Neurointerventional procedures currently rely on non-invasive imaging modalities that cannot reveal fine details of the arterial wall, perivascular space, or implanted devices, leaving clinicians blind to critical pathology during treatment of brain aneurysms, ischemic stroke, and atherosclerotic intracranial disease.
Solution
Spryte Medical provides a proprietary AI-enabled neuro Optical Coherence Tomography (nOCT) platform that brings high-resolution intravascular imaging inside the brain for the first time. A micro-optical fiber probe navigates the small, tortuous vasculature of the brain and uses backscattered light to produce cross-sectional images with micrometer resolution. The platform includes an AI-powered console, an optical module, and a fiber-optic neuroendovascular probe designed for standard neurovascular workflow. This technology enables clinicians to see past the arterial lumen, through the arterial wall, and into the perivascular space, revealing vessel pathology and device interactions that were previously unattainable with existing imaging methods.
Target Audience
Primary users are neurointerventionalists and interventional neuroradiologists who treat brain aneurysms, ischemic stroke, and intracranial atherosclerotic disease, along with clinical researchers developing new neurovascular therapies.
Features
- Proprietary nOCT imaging modality with micrometer-resolution cross-sectional imaging of biological tissue
- Miniaturized fiber-optic probe designed specifically to navigate the highly tortuous neurovascular anatomy
