ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment of the present invention, a device for delivering an embolization coil into a microcatheter for deployment of the embolization coil from the microcatheter into a body vessel of a patient is provided. The device comprises a cannula that has a proximal portion extending to a distal portion. The cannula has a lumen formed through the proximal and distal portions. The distal portion has a distal tip that is formed from metal and is configured to interface with the microcatheter for advancing the embolization coil from the lumen into the microcatheter. The proximal portion is at least partially formed of a transparent material for viewing into the lumen to facilitate delivery of the embolization coil into the microcatheter.
