Recognition, context, and distinction
What does it do, and where will I see it?
Use & procedural context
General coaxial microcatheter for reaching distal vessels for superselective angiography or embolic delivery. Typical procedural contexts include GI, uterine, prostate, and tumor embolization and trauma.
What most clearly distinguishes it from similar devices?
Key distinctions
The coaxial microcatheter is a distal delivery platform for superselection, angiography, and embolic delivery through a larger base catheter, rather than a lesion-crossing support catheter built primarily for pushability.
