Patient-Specific Neurovascular Guidewire Shaping from Preoperative Imaging
Abstract: Neuroendovascular surgery demands precise, patient-specific tool preparation — yet guidewire shaping remains a manual, experience-dependent process. This thesis presents a computational framework that automates guidewire tip optimization from preoperative imaging, offering a reproducible and scalable approach to improving procedural safety and outcomes.
