The present invention is a packaged system that includes a housing to protect a treatment device mounted on a distal portion of a catheter. The housing holds the device suspended such that there is little or no contact between the housing and the device, protecting the device from physical damage and also from exchange of chemical components between the device and the packaging materials, which can occur when a device remains in contact with packaging materials over an extended period of time. A port in the housing allows a controlled environment, for example a vacuum, to be maintained within the housing. A hollow stylet inserted into the distal end of the catheter before the catheter is placed in the housing precludes compression of the catheter and provides an injection port through which the catheter may be flushed with a fluid prior to use, eliminating the need for a separate flushing cannula.

What is claimed is: 1. A packaged system for treating a vascular condition, comprising: a treatment device; a catheter, a distal portion of the catheter bearing the treatment device; a housing to receive the distal portion of the catheter bearing the treatment device and suspend the device in a protective well, the housing including a first portion rotatably attached to a second portion, and a hollow stylet received within a distal end of the catheter, wherein the hollow stylet provides an injection port to allow the catheter to be flushed with a fluid prior to use and wherein a distal portion of the hollow stylet extends out from a distal end of the housing. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein the housing includes an environmental control port. 3. The system of claim 1 wherein the housing includes at least one sealing member. 4. The system of claim 1 wherein the housing includes a latching mechanism. 5. The system of claim 1 wherein the housing is fabricated using one or more materials selected from a group consisting of aluminum, stainless steel, polypropylene, polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFL), a nylonlpolyethylene blend, and a material that minimizes exchange of chemical components between the housing and the treatment device during shipment and storage. 6. The system of claim 1 wherein the stylet extends within the catheter to at least a proximal edge of the housing. 7. The system of claim 1 further comprising: a cap removably attached to a distal end of the hollow stylet. 8. A packaged system for treating a vascular condition, comprising: a treatment device; a catheter, a distal portion of the catheter bearing the treatment device; a housing including first and second portions, one of the first and the second portion having an environmental control port, wherein the treatment device carried on the catheter is suspended between the two housing portions in a protective well, and wherein the protective well is subjected to a controlled environment via the environmental control port, and a hollow stylet received within a distal end of the catheter, wherein the hollow stylet provides an injection port to allow the catheter to be flushed with a fluid prior to use and wherein a distal portion of the hollow stylet extends out from a distal end of the housing. 9. The system of claim 8 wherein the housing includes at least one sealing member. 10. The system of claim 9 wherein the housing includes a latching mechanism. 11. The system of claim 8 wherein the stylet extends within the catheter to at least a proximal edge of the housing. 12. The system of claim 8 further comprising: a cap removably attached to a distal end of the hollow stylet. 13. A packaged system for treating a vascular condition, comprising: a treatment device; a catheter, a distal portion of the catheter bearing the treatment device; a housing to receive the treatment device and suspend the device in a protective well; and a hollow stylet received within a distal end of the catheter, wherein the hollow stylet provides an injection port to allow the catheter to be flushed with a fluid prior to use and wherein a distal end of the hollow stylet extends through a distal end of the housing. 14. The system of claim 13 further comprising: a cap removably attached to a distal end of the hollow stylet. 15. The system of claim 13 wherein the housing includes a sealing member. 16. The system of claim 13 wherein the housing includes an environmental control port. 17. The system of claim 13 wherein the hollow stylet extends within the catheter to at least a proximal edge of the housing. 18. The system of claim 13 wherein the housing is fabricated using one or more materials selected from a group consisting of aluminum, stainless steel, polypropylene, polyethylene, a nylonlpolyethylene blend, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFL), and a material that minimizes exchange of chemical components between the treatment device and the housing during shipment and storage.
