Abstract
An improved insertion apparatus simplifies loading of neurovascular device into microcatheter. In one example, the insertion apparatus can include a tapered distal tip, allowing the insertion apparatus to reach the microcatheter with no gap. In another example, the insertion apparatus can include an uneven outer surface along its longitudinal body through laser ablation of material to form protrusions, forming taper features, forming wave patterns or thread extrusions.
