Abstract: A catheter includes a tubular inner layer, a reinforcement body disposed around the outer periphery of the inner layer, a protective layer covering the outer periphery of an end of the reinforcement body, and an outer layer covering at least the outer periphery of the protective layer. The protective layer covers the outer periphery of at least one end of reinforcement body, and the end of the reinforcement body covered with the protective layer is buried deeper in a side of the inner layer relative to a portion of the reinforcement body not covered with protective layer. The reinforcement body is prevented from lifting away from the inner layer when the catheter is bent even without increasing the outer diameter of the reinforcement body.

Abstract: A catheter device is configured to include a main body portion that is bendable and is provided on a distal end side, two systems of wire ropes coupled to a distal end portion of the main body portion with a space in a predetermined first direction, and an operating portion that is operable by a user operation and is coupled to a proximal end side of the two systems of the wire ropes with a space in the first direction. The main body portion is bendable in the first direction due to a tension state of the two systems of the wire ropes by bending the operating portion in the first direction.

Abstract: A catheter includes a transmission unit that is disposed at the distal end of a tube having a lumen and has an ultrasonic wave transmitting function; a reception unit that is disposed at the distal end of the tube and has an ultrasonic wave receiving function; and an acoustic lens that is disposed so as to cover only the transmission unit among the transmission unit and the reception unit. Ultrasonic beams transmitted from the transmission unit are converged by passing through the acoustic lens, and a reflected wave reflected on biological tissue is received by the reception unit without passing through the acoustic lens. Since setting of the positions, number, and the like of the reception units is not bound by the position, size, and the like of the acoustic lens, the positions, number, and the like of the reception units can be appropriately set to improve ultrasonic reception efficiency.

Abstract: A catheter having a lumen includes a tube, a sensor unit disposed at a distal end of the tube and capable of transmitting and receiving ultrasound, and an irradiation unit disposed at the distal end of the tube and capable of emitting the ultrasound toward a guide wire which passes through the lumen and protrudes from the distal end of the tube. The shape of the biological tissue can be observed by transmitting the ultrasound from the sensor units toward the biological tissue and receiving the reflection wave reflected by the biological tissue at the sensor units. Irradiating the guide wire with the ultrasound transmitted from the irradiation unit causes the guide wire to vibrate. The vibration of the guide wire can facilitate the passage through an occlusion site of the biological tissue.

Abstract: A catheter includes a catheter shaft, an operating portion coupled to a proximal end portion of the catheter shaft, and at least one operating wire. A distal end portion of each operating wire is fixed to a distal end portion of the catheter shaft, and a proximal end portion of each operating wire is fixed to the operating portion or the proximal end portion of the catheter shaft. The operating portion includes a first rotary member. The first rotary member makes relative rotation with respect to the catheter shaft around an axis parallel to an extending direction of the proximal end portion of the catheter shaft to change a tensile force of the operating wire and thus change a degree of bending of the distal end portion of the catheter shaft.
