MIRA ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimally_invasive#Minimally_invasive_procedure Minimally Invasive] Reconstructive [[Angiography]]) is an innovative and [[multidisciplinary]] method for treating many [[chronic diseases]]. The MIRA Procedure is a result of combining efforts from different medical fields developed in the [[University of Chicago]] in 1992. It basically consists in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_grafting medically grafting] live rejuvenated [[tissue]] in the form of [[autologous]] [[adipose]] [[adult stem cells]] to a damaged organ in order to restore it and improve its function. This method is currently approved by the [[FDA]].

Line 35:
* '''Harvest the resting [[progenitor cells]]-''' [[Bone marrow]] and/or [[adipose tissue]] are collected through [[liposuction]] by a [[reconstructive surgeon]] which are then harvested by a MIRA specialist.
* '''Activate them intro-operatively-''' The [[cells]] capable of restoration are usually in a resting state. Through a proprietary method, these cells are awakened and activated into their growth stage. This allows the cells to replicate themselves and eventually increase the number of the arm force.
* '''Package the activated cells with a protective shield-''' Activated [[progenitor cells]] are very fragile after being harvested and manipulated, making their engraftment rate less than 10%. Therefore, experts on the field developed a porous nanoscale shielding using [[biomaterials]] that are [[FDA]] approved that drastically increases engraftment rate and improve the results of [[organ]] function.
* '''Delivery to the damaged tissue-''' Lastly, all of the packages are delivered to the nearest location to the injured site of the organ using a high-resolution [[angiogram]] operated by a high-skilled [[reconstructive surgeon]] for approaching, identifying, and isolating the feeder [[arterioles]]. This step is further assisted by a interventional [[radiologist]] for a more precise application.
