An introducer system has a splittable sheath which includes a marker band. The marker band allows the sheath to be viewed under fluoroscopy while inserted within a patient, and while still allowing a medical device to be introduced therethrough. In addition, the marker band allows for the sheath to be split using a slitter in a longitudinal direction which permits the sheath to be removed from the venous system without having to be withdrawn over an end of the medical device. The marker band has perforations, comprises a mesh structure, or can comprise a braid structure, which each allow for the sheath, and the marker band, to be slittable.
