Recently, the University of Limerick in Ireland granted a license
for an innovative optical fiber technology to a local medical device company.
Once this technology is applied, physicians can better intervene in vascular disorders such as coronary artery stenosis
.
The technology was developed by researchers at the University of Limerick, and the fiber is small enough to penetrate the body's arterial tissue and read data
such as blood pressure and temperature inside the arteries.
Similar devices are also used to perform surgery to diagnose coronary blood reserve fractions, to better determine which piece is suitable for stent implantation or other ways to treat blocked
arteries.
Nevertheless, many techniques that are currently feasible in surgery are limited
by precision and stability.
Now, laboratories in Europe and North America are evaluating the technology for patenting
.
The annual market value of this pressure fiber optic technology is estimated at around 200 million euros (about 1.
6 billion yuan) and is growing
at an annual rate of 40%.
Lien, one of the researchers on the technology, said, "This fiber optic based on temperature and pressure sensing technology has great potential to help improve the effectiveness of coronary heart disease treatment and provide cardiac surgeons with a powerful tool to understand the specifics of arterial blockages to make the best treatment
.
