Abstract:
The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to a vector flush sizing catheter that is used initially to disperse contrast and measure a length of a main vessel using radiopaque measuring markers of the catheter. Subsequently, the vector flush sizing catheter is used to guide and introduce another endovascular device into the main vessel. By using the vector flush sizing catheter for both procedures, the exchange of catheters, the complexity of the procedure, and the associated risks are minimized.
