Abstract
An intravascular intervention system can include a manipulation member sized for insertion into a blood vessel and an intervention member coupled to the manipulation member. The manipulation member can include a longitudinally extending tube having a helical cut extending along the tube. The helical cut can have an axial length of at least 50 cm and be continuous along the axial length. The intervention member can be compressible to a collapsed configuration for delivery to an endovascular treatment site through a catheter and be self-expandable from the collapsed configuration to an expanded configuration.
