Dr. Jared Knopman
"Tetra coils give me the confidence in ruptured, small aneurysms of being both sturdy and incredibly soft. This ensures the ability to construct a robust frame with minimal microcatheter kickback- an especially important feature when there is limited working space in the aneurysm dome."
