About

Madison Veliky is a rising innovator in the field of interventional biomedical engineering, with a focused expertise in endovascular sensing and robotic-assisted thrombectomy. Her research centers on developing novel, real-time detection methods to improve the safety and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy procedures for conditions like stroke and pulmonary embolism. Veliky’s major contribution is the introduction of a groundbreaking sensing modality that uses oscillatory vacuum excitation to detect contact between an aspiration catheter and a thrombus. This work, published in 2024 and already garnering 6 citations, addresses a critical clinical gap by providing a method to confirm catheter-thrombus engagement without relying on fluoroscopy, thereby reducing procedural risks. By integrating custom robotic actuators with pressure sensors, she has demonstrated a practical approach to enhancing the precision of clot removal. This notable achievement not only showcases her ability to bridge engineering and clinical needs but also positions her as a key contributor to the next generation of intelligent, feedback-driven endovascular tools. Her work holds significant promise for improving patient outcomes in minimally invasive vascular interventions.
