Key goals for Installation of Biplane DSA at Our Institute

  • Establishing the technical feasibility for selective catheterization of vessels for diagnostic angiography in animal models

  • Teaching models for the resident doctors to understand the anatomical variations and catheterization techniques.

  • Development of stroke and aneurysm models for research and device development.

  • To perform selective catheterization in hepatic, renal, and peripheral vessels.

  • To establish tumor models and see the effect of novel drugs through repeated angiographic/histopathological studies.
