Results for tag: "Atherectomy"

Atherectomy is a type of cardiovascular device used to treat peripheral artery disease (PAD). It is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a catheter to remove plaque from the walls of the arteries. The device is inserted into the artery and uses a rotating blade to cut away the plaque. This helps to improve blood flow and reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. The atherectomy market is growing due to the increasing prevalence of PAD and the need for minimally invasive treatments. The market is expected to benefit from technological advancements in the field, such as the development of new devices and improved imaging techniques. Some of the major players in the atherectomy market include Abbott Laboratories, Boston Scientific Corporation, Medtronic, and Spectranetics Corporation. Show Less Read more
