🎥 1. APEX Stent Project – Bioabsorbable Stent Innovation
“A project-level overview of APEX Stent, covering materials innovation, AI-driven design, animal trials, and the creation of a transformative open-access stent research platform.”
Description: This video provides a visual introduction to the APEX Stent project, focusing on the development of next-generation biodegradable scaffolds using iron-based alloys and gold nanoparticle-assisted degradation. It outlines the project's core technologies, including laser microfabrication, AI-guided structural design, and in vivo validation in animal models. The video emphasizes the long-term vision of building a publicly accessible stent database supported by intelligent analysis.
🎥 2. CRESt: High-Throughput Microstructural Imaging and AI-Based Analysis
“An overview of CRESt, an automated, AI-powered imaging pipeline developed at MIT for high-resolution, multimodal analysis of bioabsorbable stents.”
Description: This video, developed by the MIT team, presents the CRESt platform—a high-throughput imaging and automated analysis system for vascular stents. It combines scanning electron microscopy, histological staining, intravascular imaging, and machine learning to assess structural and biological responses in stent implants. The video highlights CRESt's role in enabling standardized, comparative evaluation across diverse stent designs and experimental models.
