Abstract
A steerable quidewire of length in excess of the order of about 350 centimeters and sufficient for use for gastro-intestinal procedures includes an elongated body of flexible, kink-resistant material, the body having distal and proximal ends; a flexible distal tip formed of radiopaque material, fixedly jointed to the distal end of the body portion; and an elongated handle fixedly joined to the proximal end of the body. The handle, body and distal tip are formed of material and joined in a manner to transmit substantially all of an angular rotational force applied to the handle outside of a body to the distal tip within the body.
