ASAHI Gaia® Series
Low tip load to improve deflection and torqueability.
Technical Advantages
Deflection and Torque Control
Controllability
Penetrability by micro-cone tip
It makes easier to create the entry route to the hard tissue and fibrous cap.
Tip flexibility
Deflection control: Guiding the wire to the distal true lumen with rotational control by using deflection which occurs when advancing a shaped GW.
1 mm pre-shaped tip
