Fig. 3From: Segmented nitinol guidewires with stiffness-matched connectors for cardiovascular magnetic resonance catheterization: preserved mechanical performance and freedom from heatingThe NHLBI passive guidewire prototype compared with a Terumo Glidewire. a A 260-cm commercial Terumo Glidewire, and (b) a 260-cm NHLBI passive segmented nitinol-core guidewire are tightly coiled. Both exhibit similar bending curvatures. c The tip configurations are similarBack to article page
