Abstract
This disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for facilitating determination of morphology (e.g., shape) and structure (e.g., size, rigidity) and/or penetrating channels (e.g., microchannels) of occlusions (e.g., clots, fluid obstructions, tumors, chronic total occlusions) involving magnetic particles (e.g., nanoparticles, microparticles) controlled by an external magnetic control system.
