Figure Legend:
Fluoroscopic images show sheep jugular veins (a) with deployed radiopaque test articles (arrows) and (b) iliac veins both with no apparent disruptions due to anatomy or venous valves. A radiolucent control catheter was deployed in a right iliac vein (inset in b) showing placement of a test article in the vein. All the images were taken with the aid of intravenously injected IsoVue™ angiogenic contract solution to enhance the ability to demonstrate and qualitatively assess blood flow.
