A guidewire includes a core shaft and a coil. The core shaft has a diameter that decreases from a proximal end portion toward a distal end portion, and the coil is wound around an outer periphery of the distal end portion. The distal end portion includes a most distal end portion that is positioned at a most distal end of the distal end portion, and an intermediate portion that is connected to the most distal end portion. The cross-sectional shape of the most distal end portion is a rectangular shape. The cross-sectional shape of the intermediate portion gradually changes from the rectangular shape to a circular shape in a direction from the most distal end portion toward the proximal end portion. The length of the most distal end portion is shorter than the length of the intermediate portion. |
