Platinum Marker Band Description
Platinum Marker Band is a small, precision component used in medical devices, especially in minimally invasive procedures such as catheterizations and endoscopies. Made from platinum or platinum alloys, these bands are highly valued for their radiopacity, biocompatibility, and mechanical properties. Their primary role is to enhance the visibility of medical devices under X-ray or fluoroscopic imaging, enabling precise navigation and placement within the body.

Platinum Marker Band Applications
- Cardiovascular Interventions: Platinum marker bands are commonly used in catheters for angioplasty, stent deployment, and other cardiovascular procedures. They help ensure the stents are precisely placed within coronary or peripheral arteries.
- Neurovascular Procedures: For interventions in the brain's vascular system, such as coil embolization of aneurysms, these marker bands aid in the accurate deployment of devices.
- Urological and Gastrointestinal Procedures: In catheters and scopes used for treatments in the urinary and gastrointestinal tracts, platinum marker bands assist in navigating and positioning the devices accurately.
- Diagnostic Imaging: They are also used in devices designed for diagnostic imaging procedures, where precise location identification is crucial for accurate diagnostics or treatment delivery.
