Robot-Helped Brain Blood Vessel Procedures
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a robot to assist with brain blood vessel treatments, like checking for blockages, treating tumors, or removing clots. It may help make these procedures more precise and safer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a brain blood vessel procedure, such as an angiogram, embolization, or clot removal.
- You have not had surgery in the last 4 weeks, or you are fully healed from any past surgery.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have kidney failure or severe allergies to the dye used during the procedure.
- You do not have a serious heart condition or recent heart attack within the last 3 months.

This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure to remove blood clots from large brain arteries in people who have had a severe stroke. It may help reduce disability even when the stroke is extensive and was discovered up to 24 hours after symptoms began.
This study collects information from people who undergo a procedure for a problem in brain or blood vessels (such as stroke-related vessel blockage). It does not test a new drug; it helps doctors understand outcomes and care patterns after these procedures.
This trial tests a mechanical device to widen brain arteries that remain narrowed after standard treatment for bleeding around the brain. It may help people whose blood vessels are not opening enough with medication alone.
This trial tests if a robot can help perform a brain artery scan through the wrist as safely and effectively as the standard manual method. It might be an option if you need a detailed look at blood vessels in your brain.
This trial tests a new, less invasive surgery using a robot to help guide the doctor to drain blood from a brainstem bleed. It may be an option for people who can have surgery soon after the bleed and who have a certain level of consciousness.
This trial tests a new, less invasive brain surgery using a robotic arm guided by artificial intelligence (AI) to remove a large blood clot caused by a hemorrhagic stroke in the basal ganglia. It may be an option for people who can have surgery soon after the stroke and were previously independent.
