ABSTRACT:
A laterally attachable and detachable tool for manipulating a guidewire includes a cylindrical body that terminates in a collet. A nut is threaded to the collet and can be tightened to draw the collet arms inwardly. The body and the nut each include a lateral slot of a width to receive the guidewire. The slot in the nut is registrable with the slot in the body to form a continuous slot, receptive to the guidewire, along the length of the tool.
