The Olympus EZDilate™ ureteral balloon dilation catheter (#BURS0610) is a sterile, single-use device designed for controlled and precise dilation of ureteral strictures or for gaining access during endourological procedures. This catheter features a 6 mm (18 French) diameter balloon with a 10 cm length, providing extended dilation coverage for challenging ureteral anatomy. The device is equipped with radiopaque marker bands for accurate positioning under fluoroscopy and is constructed with a beveled, atraumatic tip to minimize patient trauma during advancement. The hydrophilic coating reduces friction, facilitating smooth insertion and navigation. The catheter is rated for a burst pressure of up to 20 atm and is compatible with standard inflation devices. It is available as a standalone catheter or as part of a kit with an inflation device.
