Description
Navigate distally with ease, embolize with reliability1
Terumo offers the Progreat microcatheter system designed for therapeutic embolization and angiography in peripheral vessels. It gives control with ease of use, kink resistance, and distal flexibility in your daily practice.
Characteristics
Ease of Use
Coaxial system
Terumo's coaxial system allows fast and smooth procedures through wire integration and easy microcatheter preparationt
Kink Resistance
Tungsten spiral coil & three layer structure
The tugsten spiral coil in its three layer structure protects inner lumen integrity for smooth delivery of all types of embolic materials2
Distal Flexibility
M-CoatTM & varied coil pitch
The varied pitch of the tungsten coil with Terumo's hydrophilic coating provides flexibility thus notably increasing its distal selectivity in tortuous and narrow vessels2.
