(A) Anterior-posterior digital subtraction angiography (DSA) angiogram of the basilar artery and Circle of Willis. The flow directed marathon catheter tip is at the basilar artery bifurcation without deforming the natural basilar artery curvature. (B) Roadmap demonstrating the flowdirected microcatheter being advanced over the wire to the posterior communicating artery) PCoA: carotid junction. (C) Microcatheter contrast injection DSA demonstrating the catheter near the PCoA: carotid artery junction. (D) Pre-catheterization posterior circulation angiogram demonstrating the flowdirected microcatheter in the distal basilar. (E) Road map image showing the flowdirected microcatheter advanced into the right superior cerebellar artery (SCA), making a >180 degree turn without deforming the arterial tree. (F) Superselective contrast injection into the SCA with some reflux into the right PCoA.
