An embolic filter, comprising:
- a hub;
- a plurality of arms extending from the hub;
- and
- a plurality of legs extending from the hub wherein each of the plurality of legs is relatively longer than each of the plurality of arms and wherein each leg comprises a core and a jacket wherein a ratio of a Young's modulus of the jacket to a Young's modulus of the core is at least 1.5.
A method of making an embolic filter, comprising:
- forming a core of an elongated member;
- masking a portion of the elongated member;
