Patent Images
1. An embolic coil including a wire having a primary shape when extended in a lumen of a deployment device, the primary shape with a plurality of first regions each having a first outer diameter, each of the first outer diameters being substantially the same, and a plurality of second regions each having a second outer diameter that is smaller than the first outer diameter, each of the second outer diameters being substantially the same,wherein:
- the embolic coil is configured to fit within a lumen of a subject;
at least one of the plurality of second regions is located between two of the plurality of first regions; and
at least one of the first regions comprises multiple windings with adjacent windings being flush with each other.
