Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	18. Subsequent Events On November 4, 2013, we entered into a partnership with Lorem Vascular to commercialize Cytori’s Cell Therapy for the cardiovascular, renal and diabetes markets in China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Australia. Under this agreement, Lorem Vascular committed to pay up to $500 million in milestone license fees and $7 million in initial product purchase commitments. Cytori is also to receive $24 million upfront in connection with Lorem Vascular’s purchase of 8 million shares of our unregistered common stock.   The $24 million will be received in two closings of $12 million each. The initial closing has already occurred, and the second $12 million closing payment will be received prior to the end of 2013. Lorem Vascular initial product purchases will consist of $7 million in Celution® devices and consumables with a $2 million order placed immediately and a $5 million order to be placed following regulatory approval in China.  Lorem and Cytori have implemented a regulatory plan in China and anticipate approval in 2014.
