  • Title: Factory fixation of an arc curve into brachial coronary artery catheters of the manipulative type: a new curve for Sones' type catheters.
    Author: Miller GC.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1985; 11(2):213-5. PubMed ID: 3986902.
    Abstract:
    Advantage was found in factory fixing an approximation of the curve that has long been hand-formed at the tableside by angiographers using the manipulative type brachial-coronary technique. It consists of a 7 cm arc of a circle of 10 cm diameter. Used in 68 different patients, it was found to definitely facilitate and speed selective cannulation of the coronary artery ostia as compared to previous curves.
