Product Details

The OptiCross 18 Catheter’s 3.5 F crossing profile, enhanced trackability and pushability, and tapered imaging window contribute to smooth, sure deliverability.  A beveled tip design is intended to ease legion entry, decrease stent catch, and provide peace of mind.

Exceptional Deliverability

Superior Deliverability

  • Balloon tip technology to facilitate crossing and deliverability
  • Small crossing profile and shaft stiffness transitions for excellent deliverability
  • Lubricious coating promotes deliverability

Best in Class Image Quality

Enhanced Image Quality

  • 30 MHz transducer frequency allows for deeper ultrasound penetration than a 40 MHz transducer frequency
  • Ability to visualize larger vessel sizes with higher image resolution than a 20 MHz transducer frequency

Ease of Use

Improved Ease of Use

  • Stronger proximal shaft for great pushability
  • Ease of flush for quick prep
  • Compatible with iLab™ POLARIS Multi-Modality Guidance System
     

 

Clinical Data

The newly published IVUS global consensus study, co-sponsored by BSC, suggests importance of implementing IVUS into practice in order to optimize procedural outcomes. 

IVUS strongly supported

throughout arterial intervention procedural phases1

IVUS voted appropriate in all procedural phases

for use in iliofemoral-venous interventions1
