Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A medical guide wire with excellent visibility is provided. A medical guide wire including: a wire body (2) that is flexible and long; a covering layer (3) covering a surface of the wire body (2); and a wire material (4) helically arranged on the covering layer (3), wherein the covering layer (3) is formed of a transparent material same as a transparent material of the wire material (4), and the wire material (4) is arranged at a regular pitch along the longitudinal direction of the wire body (2).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
1 . A medical guide wire comprising: a wire body that is flexible and long; a covering layer covering a surface of the wire body; and a wire material helically arranged on the covering layer, wherein the covering layer is formed of a transparent material same as a transparent material of the wire material, and the wire material is arranged at a regular pitch along a longitudinal direction of the wire body. 2 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , wherein the wire body includes a core material and a coloring layer coloring a surface of the core material, and the coloring layer has at least one color of black, white, yellow, blue, red, and green. 3 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , wherein an outermost layer composed of the wire material and the covering layer has a maximum value of glossiness in an incident angle range of 30° or more and 80° or less. 4 . The medical guide wire according to claim 3 , wherein the outermost layer has a maximum value of glossiness of 15 or less. 5 .
