Results for tag: "Echogenic Catheter"

An echogenic catheter is a type of catheter that is designed to be visible on ultrasound imaging. It is typically used in interventional radiology and cardiology procedures, such as angioplasty, stent placement, and biopsy. The catheter is made of a material that is highly reflective of ultrasound waves, allowing it to be seen clearly on the imaging. This makes it easier for the physician to accurately guide the catheter to the desired location. Echogenic catheters are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to improve the accuracy and safety of medical procedures. They are also being used in a variety of other medical applications, such as in the diagnosis of vascular diseases. Some of the major companies in the echogenic catheter market include Boston Scientific, Cook Medical, Medtronic, and Terumo Corporation. These companies are involved in the development and manufacture of a wide range of catheters, including echogenic catheters. Show Less Read more
