Although rates of ischemic stroke occurrence are increasing, the outcomes for patients who suffer from stroke have never been better, largely as a result of advances in endovascular treatment.
However, the brain, with its tiny blood vessels and highly tortuous arteries, presents a unique challenge for catheter engineers: designing a catheter with the right combination of properties which can more easily access and navigate the vasculature of the brain, without sacrificing torque, pushability, and trackability.
