The neurovascular catheters market can be segmented based on product type, indication, end-use, and region.
1. Sub-Segment: Microcatheters
Microcatheters are a crucial sub-segment of neurovascular catheters and are widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of various neurovascular diseases. These catheters feature a small diameter, typically less than 1.8 mm, which allows for access to complex and tortuous cerebral vasculatures. Microcatheters are extensively utilized in procedures such as embolization, angiography, and thrombolysis. With the increasing prevalence of cerebrovascular disorders, the demand for microcatheters is expected to witness substantial growth.
