What is it indicated for?

The Cordis ELITECROSS™ Support Catheter is intended to facilitate the intraluminal placement of diagnostic/interventional devices beyond stenotic lesions (including chronic total occlusions) in the peripheral vasculature prior to further percutaneous intervention, and to deliver saline or contrast medium. Additionally, ELITECROSS™ can be used as an accessory with the FRONTRUNNER® XP CTO Catheter.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
