THERMALLY ROBUST, ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE COMPATIBLE, DEVICES FOR NON-INVASIVE AND INVASIVE SURGERY

摘要

Techniques to fabricate and use a nanocomposite coating that includes one or more nanotubes such as carbon nanotubes are disclosed. In some examples, a guidewire may include the nanocomposite material. The guidewire is immune to electromagnetic interference, is thermally robust, and is capable of accommodating inactive markers and active electronics.
