A tool (10) for coaxially loading a flexible member into a lumen of a catheter. Typically, the flexible member is a flexible imaging core or similar device. The tool includes a body (18) which has a connector (22), which connects the body (18) to a hub located on the catheter. A pair of opposed rollers (12, 14) disposed proximate to the connector, are used to advance the flexible member, through the connector and into the catheter, which is connected to the connector. The flexible member is advanced by counter rotating the rollers.
