Millar Instruments, developer and manufacturer of Mikro-Tip® pressure transducer catheters and pressure-volume (P-V) systems, today announced the expansion of its French catheter line with the introduction of the PVR-1045 pressure-volume catheter.

With a catheter tip size of 1F (1/3 mm), the PVR-1045 is the smallest and least invasive sensor tip pressure-volume catheter available on the market. The smaller diameter gives researchers using Millar’s pressure-volume systems (MPVS) a new tool in the characterisation of cardiovascular function by allowing access to smaller animals than previously possible.
