This invention includes a highly torqueable, pushable guidewire with a relatively stiff proximal (preferably in one embodiment), stainless steel (SS) section and kink resistant nitinol medial to distal section attached to a shapeable SS, in one embodiment, (such as a SS ribbon) distal tip. The very distal SS tip will have the ability to be shaped by the end user in order to facilitate entry into the chosen vessels.
