Mentice NV Intracranial Artery Stenosis (ICAD) Cases is a specialized software module designed for simulation-based training in the endovascular treatment of intracranial artery stenosis. The software offers a realistic, image-guided environment where clinicians can practice the full workflow of ICAD interventions, including assessment of stenosis location and severity, device selection, navigation, angioplasty, and stenting. The module supports technical, procedural, and cognitive skill development in a risk-free setting, allowing users to handle complex anatomical variations and procedural complications. It is suitable for both beginners and advanced operators, providing opportunities to perfect navigation, device handling, and procedural planning. The software integrates with the NV Connect platform, enabling trainers to set benchmarks and customize training objectives for different user groups.
