    Abstract: A guide wire includes a distal flexible member, such as a helical coil, which is formed with at least one highly radiopaque component and at least one component that is less radiopaque. A first wire is wound into first coils and a second wire is wound into second coils so that the first coils alternate between the second coils to form a distal helical coil. The second wire is highly radiopaque to assist a physician in positioning the distal end of the guide wire in a patient's vasculature, such as a coronary artery.
