E-029 Progressively soft coils for treatment of intracerebral aneurysms - an initial experience with the smart coil at two centers

Conclusion The progressive design of SMART Coils offered appreciable clinical advantages during deployment. In addition, SMART demonstrated satisfactory safety and efficacy outcomes in treatment of a wide variety aneurysms, both ruptured and unruptured.
