Systems and methods can remove material of interest, including blood clots, from a body region, including but not limited to the circulatory system for the treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), cerebrovascular embolism, and other vascular occlusions. The capture system can include a tubular body comprising a first end, a second end, and an axial length therebetween, the first end having an opening and a capture guide. The capture system can include one or more tensioners coupled to the capture guide. The tubular body has a first configuration in which the first end and the capture guide are expanded while the second end and a majority of the tubular body remains compressed. The tubular body is transformable to a second configuration by application of tension by the tensioners. The catheter can remove a large volume of clot. In some embodiments, the body of the catheter or the funnel tip is expandable. The catheter can include a dilator and a peel-away cover.
