Abstract
Neurovascular flow diverter and delivery systems, and methods of using the same are described herein. The systems can include a customizing member including an introducer sheath, a catheter, a deployable flow diverter that can be contained in the introducer sheath or in the catheter, a core wire, and one or several deployment features coupled to the core wire and engaging the flow diverter. The customizing member includes a tubing extending along and around a distal portion of the introducer sheath. This tubing is cuttable and contains a distal end of the flow diverter. The length of the flow diverter can be customized by cutting through the tubing and the therein contained flow diverter.
