Arterial access from lower extremity. The common femoral artery is the only access site used in the lower extremity. Catheters used for performing coronary angiography via the femoral artery were developed by Melvin Judkins, MD; thus, the method often is referred to as the Judkins technique. This widely used method requires separate preformed catheters for the right and left coronary arteries (see the images below).

The metal is 'ringing' or vibrating in many places, and that metal is aluminum and the aluminum is in sheets or thin plates and the sound of that material in thin plates is 'tinny'; in fact the name tinny sounding comes for the sound of sheet metal vibrating!
