## Indications for use
The Eagle Eye Gold catheters are designed for use in the evaluation of vascular morphology in blood vessels of the coronary and peripheral vasculature by providing a cross-sectional image of such vessels. This device is not currently indicated for use in cerebral vessels. The Eagle Eye Gold ultrasound imaging catheters are designed for use as an adjunct to conventional angiographic procedures to provide an image of the vessel lumen and wall structures. Volcano VH IVUS System is intended to be used in conjunction with imaging catheters during diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the peripheral and coronary vasculature. The Volcano VH IVUS System is intended to semi-automatically visualize boundary features and perform spectral analysis of RF ultrasound signals of vascular featues that the user may wish to examine more closely during routine diagnostic ultrasound imaging examinations.
