OptiCross 18 Catheter features & benefits
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
- 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
- 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
- Stronger proximal shaft for great pushability
- Ease of flush for quick prep
- Compatible with iLab™ POLARIS Multi-Modality Guidance System
