Nitinol Marker Band Description
Nitinol Marker Band is a small, cylindrical component used in medical devices, made from Nitinol alloy, which is a nickel-titanium alloy well-known for its unique properties such as super elasticity and shape memory effect. These marker bands are designed to provide visibility under imaging techniques and to offer structural support or location guidance within the body, especially during minimally invasive medical procedures.

Nitinol Marker Band Applications
- Vascular Stents: Nitinol marker bands are used in stents for peripheral and coronary artery diseases, where they help in the precise placement of the stent and ensure it expands to the intended shape.
- Endovascular Aneurysm Repair: In devices used for repairing aneurysms, marker bands can indicate the location and orientation of the device to ensure accurate deployment.
- Orthopedic Devices: For minimally invasive orthopedic surgeries, Nitinol marker bands can help in accurately positioning implants or tools.
- Urological and Gastrointestinal Devices: In stents, catheters, and guidewires used within the urinary and gastrointestinal tracts, these bands assist in navigation and placement.
- Dental Applications: Nitinol is used in dental implants and devices, where marker bands could aid in the precise location and assessment of the device's position.
