    摘要: An intravascular catheter having an elongate shaft that is entirely non-magnetically responsive and at least partially radiopaque, including a reinforcement layer. The reinforcement layer may comprise a non-magnetically responsive radiopaque metal, such as a multi-strand Tungsten braid. The improved shaft of the present invention is compatible with x-ray and MRI visualization techniques, and may be incorporated into a wide variety of intravascular catheters such as guide catheters, diagnostic catheters, balloon catheters, etc.

    摘要: An apparatus and method to produce radiopaque medical implants such as catheters, stents, or other implants. A composition of a radiopaque brominated polyurethane coat and a polyurethane tubing core is formed. In one embodiment, the polyurethane coat includes a diisocyanate and a brominated diol having a bromine concentration of 30% or more. The coat is applied to the elastomeric polyurethane tubing core surface. The medical implant takes advantage of employing a brominated radiopaque polyurethane with the tensile properties, for example of flexibility and kink resistance, of the elastomeric thermoplastic polyurethane tubing core without degrading these desirable characteristics.

    摘要: Medical devices that incorporate compounds containing fluorine-19 materials for use as contrast agents and passive markers in interventional magnetic resonance angiography. The device may be a guidewire, guiding catheter, angioplasty catheter, stent, embolic protection device, endovascular graft, endotracheal tube, Foley catheter, Hickman catheter, Broviac catheter, cerebrospinal fluid shunt, biliary stent, stylet, biopsy needle, electrode, percutaneous or endoluminal transducer or other desired interventional medical device. The fluorine-19 material may be configured from an elastomer, a fluid, a fluorosilicone, or a perfluorocarbon grease or oil. Such materials may be incorporated into marker bands and/or stripes, or may be deposited into or dispersed within the walls or lumens of the medical device to be visualized. Use of fluorine-19 containing markers and contrast agents provide a novel method of performing angioplasty and deploying stents, grafts, embolic protection and other such devices using interventional magnetic resonance angiography.
