Description
Matthieu Coupet leads a team of eight building software to map brain aneurysms that reopen after treatment, in PLOS ONE in 2026. Aneurysms are often sealed from inside with metal coils, but blood sometimes finds its way back in, a problem called recanalization. Surgeons considering a follow up clipping operation need exact measurements of the reopened space, the coil mass, and the vessel neck, which are tedious to trace by hand.
Their framework trains a proven medical imaging network on three dimensional angiography scans to outline the vessel tree, the coils, and the reopened channel separately. Automated steps then compute planning numbers such as the distance from coils to neck and the volume of the recurrence. Early results across the evaluated cases were consistent and encouraging. The authors position the tool as preparation support for microsurgery, not a replacement for surgical judgment.
