A new report from researchers at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinic discusses the safety and effectiveness of the Surpass Evolve (SE) flow diverter for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms (iA). The study, which included 305 patients with 332 aneurysms, found that SE had a consistently high effectiveness and favorable safety profile.
