Mikrokatheter
A Mikrokatheter, also known as a microcatheter, is a small, thin catheter used in medical procedures to deliver medications, fluids, or other substances directly into specific areas of the body. These catheters are typically made from flexible materials such as silicone or polyurethane and are designed to be minimally invasive, reducing the risk of complications compared to larger catheters. Mikrokatheters are commonly used in interventional radiology and cardiology for procedures such as angioplasty, stent placement, and the treatment of vascular conditions. They are available in various sizes and shapes, allowing for precise targeting of different anatomical locations. The use of Mikrokatheters has become increasingly popular due to their ability to provide targeted therapy with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues. However, like any medical device, the use of Mikrokatheters carries potential risks and benefits that must be carefully considered by healthcare professionals.
