High-resolution anatomical modeling of Ankyras, showcasing detailed structural features and their applications in biomedical engineering, prosthetics design, and anatomical research.

Anatomical modeling

Start the simulation by using the threshold segmentation method to create the 3D vessel model from the 3D DICOM image (3DRA/MRA).

Morphology


Explore the patient's anatomy in deeper detail: Ankyras® measures the morphology considering the 3-dimensional space, providing a detailed analysis of the changing diameter values over the artery, and the segment length to be treated.

Diameter (mm)

Visualization of Ankyras diameter calculation from perimeter, showcasing geometric precision and its relevance in engineering, material science, and structural analysis applications.

Inscribed Diameter (mm)

Illustration of inscribed diameter in Ankyras, emphasizing geometric accuracy and its application in optimizing designs for engineering, robotics, and structural innovations.

Area (mm)

Visualization of circularity in Ankyras, highlighting the geometric analysis and its importance in assessing structural efficiency, symmetry, and application in advanced engineering and material science.

Sizing

Ankyras® uses its unique simulation algorithm to assess commercially available flow diverter's final length and position. This method uses device design and detailed morphological descriptors of the treated vessel to show the fitting and position of the device to provide a 95% accurate position and length of the implanted device.

Precise depiction of sizing Ankyras, illustrating scalable designs and their applications in customizable engineering solutions, structural optimization, and adaptive technologies.
Dynamic representation of expansion Ankyras, demonstrating their adaptable structure and versatility in applications such as mechanical engineering, robotics, and innovative material sciences.

Expansion

Selecting a flow diverter with good apposition to the vessel wall is possible thanks to the expansion representation over the device surface and the expansion chart. Simulated expansion is colored upon the device's simulated surface, indicating those areas on which the device is fully expanded and not completely attached to the vessel wall based on the device maximum diameter.

Porosity

Ankyras® Porosity characterizes and predicts the local porosity of the flow diverter after implantation. It is intended to help understand differences in local porosity compared to other device brands and sizes and to evaluate the final coverage and expansion in the desired region.

Detailed visualization of porosity in Ankyras, highlighting the porous structure's role in enhancing material efficiency, durability, and adaptability for advanced engineering and biomedical applications.
Illustration of telescoping Ankyras, showcasing intricate structural design and functionality in advanced engineering, featuring extendable mechanisms ideal for industrial and robotic applications.

Telescoping

Simultaneously simulate multiple flow diverters to assess whether a telescoping technique suits the patient-specific anatomy.

Multifaceted Environment

Accessible on desktop, online and mobile app

The different Ankyras® platforms allow the use of the software in the user’s most suitable way; from preparing a simulation offline and checking the results in site, to preparing a simulation online and sharing it with other Ankyras members or third parties, who will be able to access the shared simulation as well with limited functionalities.
