Abstract
An intravascular treatment device is presented having an expandable frame made up of circular struts, straight struts, and bent struts forming a frame with circumference that varies over the length of the frame. Radiopaque markers can be positioned on the bent struts to indicate outer circumferences of the frame along the length of the frame. The device can be a stent or a clot retriever. If the device is a clot retriever, the proximal end of the expandable frame can be attached to a guide wire and the distal end of the expandable frame can be free to slide over the guide wire when the frame moves from a collapsed state to an expanded state and vice versa.
