Summary:An elongated access device 20 used in a medical system. The elongated access device 20 slidably receives a medical tool 30 and an ultrasound probe 22. The elongated access device includes a sheath and an intraluminal tip attached to the distal end of the sheath. One or more orientation pins 26 are engaged with the respective ramp donuts 34 and nose donuts 36 and may be anchored within the sheath.
