A simple method of femorocerebral catheterization.
A method of catheterizing the cerebral vessels by the femoral route which does not require seating the end hole prior to guide wire introduction has been devised. The orifice of the desired vessel can be localized fluoroscopically via contrast material injections without undue manipulation prior to guide wire introduction.
