Smoother pathways for healthier blood flow
What it is:
Orbital Atherectomy is an advanced, minimally invasive technique used to treat heavily calcified coronary arteries — arteries that have hardened due to calcium deposits. These tough blockages can make angioplasty or stenting difficult.
How it works:
A tiny diamond-coated crown rotates inside the artery at high speed, ( 80000 and 120000 revolutions per minute ) gently sanding away the calcium buildup. This helps restore flexibility in the artery walls and allows a stent to be placed safely and effectively. It deals with both superficial and deep calcium
Enables treatment of severely calcified arteries
Improves stent placement and expansion
Reduces complications during angioplasty
Minimally invasive with quick recovery
Light-powered precision for complex blockages
What it is:
Laser Atherectomy uses cool, pulsating laser energy to remove or vaporize plaque and blockages inside the arteries — especially when standard angioplasty tools can’t pass through.
How it works:
A thin catheter delivers laser pulses that vaporize, clots, cholesterol, calcium, and other debris, reopening the artery with minimal trauma.
Benefits:
Ideal for in-stent restenosis (when old stents get re-blocked)
Large thrombus ( clot) burden
Precise removal of tough or long blockages
Safe for small or tortuous vessels
Calcified arteries
Short hospital stay, faster return to normal life
