The Stryker Excelsior 1018 Neurovascular Microcatheter (REF M0031441890) is a variable-stiffness microcatheter engineered for selective and superselective access within the neurovasculature. It features a straight tip configuration, a 0.019 in (0.48 mm) inner diameter, a 150 cm total working length, and a 6 cm distal segment, with 2 radiopaque tip markers to support fluoroscopic visualization during navigation and device delivery.
