This angiographic catheter features tungsten layering in its distal catheter area to provide improved fluoroscopic visualization with its radiopaque catheter tip. The catheter's tip is made of soft material that decreases the risk of trauma occurring during contrast injection and selection. The catheter's highly advanced tip design combines shape retention and flexibility to provide enhanced access and stability. Additionally, the tapered, polished catheter tip allows for easier entry and crossing with its smooth tip-to-wire transition. The catheter's torque response is constructed to allow for more exact positioning, and its fluted hub is durable to make guidewire manipulation easier and promote strain relief. The catheter is also available in a wide variety of cerebral, flush, and visceral shapes to ensure that individual clinical requirements are met.
