Stainless Steel Marker Band Description
Stainless Steel Marker Band is a small ring used in medical devices, particularly in minimally invasive medical instruments like catheters and guidewires. These bands are made from palladium or its alloys, which are chosen for their excellent radiopacity, biocompatibility, and corrosion resistance. The primary function of Stainless Steel Marker Bands is to enhance the visibility of the medical device under X-ray or fluoroscopic imaging, allowing for precise navigation and placement within the body during diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.

Stainless Steel Marker Band Applications
- Vascular Interventions: Stainless steel marker bands are used in catheters and guidewires for cardiovascular, peripheral, and neurovascular interventions, aiding in device positioning and deployment.
- Endoscopic Procedures: In endoscopy, where devices are navigated through various internal passages, marker bands help in tracking the device's location and ensuring it reaches the target area.
- Orthopedic Applications: For orthopedic tools and implants, stainless steel marker bands can aid in the accurate placement and alignment of devices during minimally invasive surgeries.
- Diagnostic Procedures: They are also utilized in devices designed for diagnostic purposes, where accurate device positioning is critical for obtaining precise diagnostic information.
