Intended use: A single-use guidewire for selective cannulation of the biliary ducts and for catheter introduction and exchange during endoscopic biliary procedures.

In which cases?

  • Selective cannulation of the common bile, cystic, right and left hepatic ducts.

What makes it different?

  • Hydrophilic tip the manufacturer describes it for passing narrow segments.
  • Nickel titanium core, which the manufacturer gives for kink resistance and support.
  • Two-colour spiral pattern on the wire, for following instrument exchange.
  • Visible under X-ray, so the position is checked on fluoroscopy.
