New breakthrough in the medical field of nickel-titanium springs: A revolution in minimally invasive surgery and intelligent implantation

1. Upgrade of minimally invasive surgical instruments: more precise and safer

Deformable catheter spring: Used in neurointerventional surgery, the super-elastic nickel-titanium alloy enables the catheter to turn flexibly in the blood vessel, reducing tissue damage (in 2024, the US FDA approved a new type of spring guide wire).

Self-expanding stents: The new generation of nickel-titanium stents automatically expand at body temperature, reducing restenosis rates. Clinical trials have shown that postoperative complications are reduced by 40%.

2. Innovation in Orthopedics and Dentistry: Personalized Treatment
4D printed bone screws: By taking advantage of the shape memory effect, they return to the preset shape with body temperature after implantation, accelerating fracture healing (the first clinical trial in China was successful in 2023).

- Smart braces spring: It can monitor the bite force in real time and adjust the orthodontic plan through the APP, shortening the orthodontic cycle by 30%.

3. Degradable nickel-titanium alloy: Avoids secondary surgeries
Magnesium-based nickel-titanium vascular stents: Gradually degrade after fulfilling their supporting mission, avoiding the long-term retention problem of traditional metal stents (Europe will enter the human trial stage in 2025).

4. New Directions in Cancer treatment
Targeted drug release springs: Implanted near the tumor, they trigger shape memory through magnetothermal effects and release chemotherapy drugs at regular times (a successful animal experiment was reported in a Nature sub-journal in 2024).

5. Breakthrough in neural repair
Bionic nerve catheter: Nickel-titanium spring scaffolds guide the directional growth of nerve cells. Experiments on rats with spinal cord injury show that the recovery rate of motor function has increased by 60% (research results from a Japanese team in 2025).

Industry Dynamics
Investment boom: The global medical nickel-titanium alloy market size will exceed 5 billion US dollars in 2024, with an annual growth rate of 12%.

Conclusion: From "passive treatment" to "active repair", nickel-titanium springs are driving medical care into the era of intelligent materials!
