Ostial lesions or bifurcational stentings mark a transition towards increasingly complex coronary interventions. Those require precise stent positioning before balloon inflation.
CLEARstent Live takes stent enhancement to real-time. This allows catheter manipulation while getting a clear representation of the currently positioned stent in relation to previously deployed stents or cardiac anatomy.
CLEARstent Live allows a real-time verification of the stent positioning while moving the device, eliminating cardiac movement.

CLEARstent Live is based on the same principle as CLEARstent, identifying the golden balloon markers and enhancing the stent by rotating and manipulating the images to position the markers on top of each other. Differently to CLEARstent though, this processing is ongoing and displays the live result in real time. The enhanced image is displayed on the Artis Assist monitor while the regular acquisition is shown on the Artis Live monitor.
CLEARstent Live can enhance any frame rate up to 15 f/s and similar to CLEARstent, CLEARstent Live runs on the Artis system and does not require an additional workstation. It offers full PACS compatibility by saving the resulting scenes as DICOM files, which can be exported and reviewed with any DICOM viewer.
