Abstract

Embolic protection filtering devices and methods of making and using the same. The present invention may include an embolic protection filtering device including a filter cartridge (12) that is slidable over medical devices, for example, guidewires (16). The filter cartridge may have a filter (22) coupled thereto and may have desirable flexibility and trackability characteristics.
