Alternative vascular device for high-flow computed tomography angiography: ultrasound-guided long peripheral catheter (4 Fr × 10 cm).
CONCLUSION: An 18-gauge-long peripheral catheter (4 Fr × 10 cm, Leadercath; Vygon) following specific protocols appears to be safe for conducting high-flow computed tomography studies in patients with limited venous access.
