St. Luke’s University Health Network has become the first health care system in the region and one of the first nationwide to implement AngioFlow™ by RapidAI, a breakthrough perfusion imaging technology.
AngioFlow is an advanced brain blood flow imaging tool used for acute stroke evaluation, said Dr. Martin Oselkin, neurointerventional radiologist. Traditionally, patients are sent to a CT scanner for perfusion imaging to help physicians make the decision for thrombectomy (clot removal) or not, but AngioFlow allows St. Luke’s to skip the CT scanner and perform the perfusion study right in the operating room…
