"most" implying that some radiologists are 100% on board with sticking a stainless steel whisk that may or may not be ever possible to remove into the largest vein in your body just on the off chance that it does something useful
how the hell do you get it in there anyway. why does it have sharp, pointy, bent ends. why does it have a massive hook on it. do you anchor it into the vein, or do you rely on it getting stuck inside like an umbrella. so many questions i hope to never know answers for
