SPECTRUM OF CATHETERS IN NEUROINTERVENTION: A RADIOLOGIST’S PERSPECTIVE

Prithvijit Chakraborty, Soumik Das, Aniruddha Ghosh, Tapan Dhibar

Abstract

Catheters are an integral part of interventional neuroradiology and have their uses distributed from diagnostic to therapeutic neurointerventions. They are of several types according to shape (e.g Cobra, Headhunter, Simmons etc), size, purpose (Onyx and Glue compatiable), Structure ( Balloon mounted, Detachable tip etc). Detailed knowledge about their properties is crucial for deep learning and successful neurointervention. Here we try to provide a comprehensive review of various catheters used in various sections of interventional neuroradiology.
