摘要: A system and method for quickly detaching an implant locating the detachment zone of a detachable implant. sensor determines sudden change in local environment as passes from within microcatheter to being exposed vasculature. The may be temperature sensor, ultrasonic pressure or like. If assembly uses heater coil detach implant, used sensor. Additionally, itself if electrical resistance is detectable exits changes shape.
