Abstract
An implant delivery system having an implant-pusher junction that has improved flexibility due to a shortened heater and tapered marker band. The heater capsule includes a coil having a complex shape made possible through additive manufacturing. The complex shape generates increased heat over a shorter length when compared to traditional linear coils. The marker band includes a tapered end that allows the implant to pivot relative to the pusher.
