Scientists at the University of Tokyo have developed a groundbreaking AI-powered technology that can non-invasively monitor platelet activity in real time, detecting potentially deadly blood clots.

Artificial intelligence can cut the diagnosis of blood clots in the lungs to a few minutes, instead of hours. And an AI-assisted system being tested enables non-technicians to do it.

The spinner enters the blood vessel through a catheter, just like existing tools. Once in place near the clot, it spins rapidly—up to 40,000 revolutions per minute.

In blood-vessel-model and live pig tests, the milli-spinner was able to reduce the volume of clots by up to 95%, allowing for successful clot removal on approximately 90% of first attempts.

Blood clots can also be formed in the body during and after pregnancy, when you take birth control pills or estrogen hormones, or when you use an IV catheter for a long time.

However, those longer trips can give way to health concerns: Developing blood clots. Here's how to avoid developing blood clots during summer travel, according to Louisiana doctors.
