EMERALD Diagnostic Guidewire
EMERALD Diagnostic Guidewire by Cordis
The EMERALD Diagnostic Guidewire by Cordis is a single-use, hydrophilic-coated nitinol core guidewire engineered for superior torque response and smooth trackability through tortuous coronary and peripheral vasculature. Its soft, atraumatic distal tip minimizes vessel trauma during diagnostic catheterization procedures, making it the trusted choice of interventional cardiologists and vascular surgeons in catheterization labs worldwide.
Designed for precision and reliability, the EMERALD Guidewire delivers consistent performance across a wide range of anatomies — from complex coronary lesions to challenging peripheral access routes. The hydrophilic coating reduces friction and enhances maneuverability, while the nitinol core provides the ideal balance of flexibility and pushability for confident navigation through tortuous vessels.
