CARE: A Multicenter Case Study to Assess Radiation Exposure in Patients Treated With the Penumbra Coil 400

The primary objective of this study is to gather data on the radiation exposure in patients treated with the Penumbra Coil 400™ System (PC 400) or conventional coils per their respective indications for use.This is a multicenter case review study of patients presenting with intracranial aneurysms who are treated with coil embolization therapy using the PC 400 or conventional coils. Data for each patient are collected acutely.Up to 90 patients treated with the PC 400 or conventional coils (2:1) at up to 15 centers in the USA will be enrolled.
