Abstract
The invention relates to systems and methods for intracranial vessel access. In particular, a system including a co-axial combination of a steerable variable thickness microwire operatively supporting a tapered larger bore support and larger bore distal access catheter is described. Methods of advancing the intracranial access system through the vasculature are also described.
Claims20
An intracranial access system comprising:
- a core wire;
- and
- a support overlying the core wire, the support comprising a proximal section, a distal section, and an expanded cylindrical section between the proximal section and the distal section;
- and,
- wherein a diameter of the expanded cylindrical section is greater than a diameter of either of the proximal section and the distal section.

A method of accessing vasculature of a patient, comprising:
- advancing a guidewire to a target location, the guidewire comprising a core wire and a support overlying the core wire, and the support comprising an expanded section;
- and
- advancing a catheter over the guidewire.
An intracranial access system comprising:
- a wire means;
- and
- a support means overlying the wire means, the support means comprising a proximal section, a distal section, and an expanded cylindrical section between the proximal section and the distal section;
- wherein a diameter of the expanded cylindrical section is greater than a diameter of either of the proximal section and the distal section;
- and,
- wherein the expanded cylindrical section is substantially centered on the wire means.
