    The EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit is intended exclusively for use with the EkoSonic Endovascular Device and the EkoSonic MACH4 Endovascular Device. || The EkoSonic Endovascular System consists of three main components: || -a single use EkoSonic Endovascular Device which is comprised of an Intelligent Drug Delivery Catheter (IDDC) and || -removable MicroSonic Device (MSD), and || -a reusable EKOS EkoSonic Control System. || During use, fluids are delivered through the side-holes of the IDDC.
