ADVANTAGES

Problem-free working

• Rotatable guide wire
• Quick and precise to operate torquer
• High precision in targeted cannulation of bile ducts
• Rapid location of stenosed bile duct outlets
• Also suitable for cannulation of the papilla

New

Special features

• Can be used with a catheter or papillotome
• High contrast in fluoroscopy
• Hydrophilic coating with high lubricity
• Less kinking due to shortening of the flexible tip (higher precision)

Research

Case study

1. Targeted cannulation of a single enlarged segmental branch in the left lobe of the liver in cases of liver metastases.
2. Targeted selective cannulation of both hepatic ducts in cases of Klatskin tumors.

SIMULATED ROTARY MOTION

Corkscrew principle

The Smart-Wire guide wire developed by PD Dr. med. habil. Jochen Weigt functions similarly to a corkscrew. The 3D tip allows for movement in all directions.
