HI-TORQUE
PILOT¢â Guide Wire Family
When
it comes to challenging cases, you are in total
control.
The HI-TORQUE PILOT¢â guide wires are polymer-tipped
and hydrophilic polymer coated. These wires are
designed to give you a smooth, effortless feel
with superb torque transmission and variable tip
stiffness.
Guidant continues to pioneer guide wire technology
with the HI-TORQUE PILOT¢â Family. Its unique tip
and core design provides the combination of stiffness
and control that physicians look for when crossing
difficult lesions. |
