Peripheral angioplasty balloon technology

Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1993
Changes in balloon and catheter technology have led to the development of smaller, more flexible, and less traumatic balloon dilatation systems. The physical principles that govern balloon angioplasty and the current status of balloon materials and catheter designs will be reviewed. A compilation of various angioplasty catheters is also summarized.

Angioplasty balloon deployment control

Proceedings of the 2010 American Control Conference, 2010
Application of control engineering methods is suggested for percutaneous coronary intervention. In particular, angioplasty balloon deployment control is discussed. A general control structure is proposed with the aim of reducing possible arterial damage during balloon deployment.

Laser balloon angioplasty versus balloon angioplasty in normal rabbit iliac arteries

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 1989
AbstractReduction of vascular recoil is an important goal of laser balloon angioplasty (LBA), wherein Nd:YAG laser radiation is delivered radially during balloon inflation. To define the acute and chronic effects of LBA on the normal arterial lumen in comparison with those of balloon angioplasty (BA), 36 New Zealand White male rabbits (3–4 kg) were ...

[Balloon angioplasty].

Archives des maladies du coeur et des vaisseaux, 2000
Balloon angioplasty of the coronary arteries is about 20 years old and has become the main technique of myocardial revascularisation. It is performed under local anaesthetic by arterial puncture and some centres are already performing the procedures on an ambulatory basis.

Kissing balloon coronary angioplasty

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1984
Balloon angioplasty of stenoses involving a bifurcation of coronary arteries carries a significant risk of permanent occlusion of I of the branches. 1 Kissing balloon angioplasty was first described for aortoplasty in the Leriche syndrome. 2 In 1981, Gruentzig introduced it into coronary angioplasty.

Balloon Angioplasty and Stenting

2018
In 1964, Charles Dotter and Melvin Judkins performed the first successful transluminal angioplasty of a superficial femoral artery stenosis. Since then, techniques of revascularization have been the cornerstone of interventional radiology (IR) practices.

Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty

2017
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is a promising treatment option for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension who are considered ineligible for surgical treatment. Since 2012, the effect of balloon pulmonary angioplasty has been reported mainly in Japan, but currently, it is attracting the attention of many pulmonary hypertension ...

Laser Balloon Angioplasty

1995
Laser balloon angioplasty (LBA) is presented as an example of a potential therapy based on thermal alterations of tissue by laser. Its future acceptance as a full clinical modality depends significantly on how its efficacy, advantages, and limitations compare with the current alternative angioplasty techniques described in Section 24.2.

Laser balloon angioplasty.

Critical reviews in biomedical engineering, 1992
Unlike conventional transluminal percutaneous angioplasty (PTCA), which applies only intraluminal pressure, laser balloon angioplasty (LBA) employs simultaneous heat and pressure to reopen heavily occluded arterial lumens. The circumferential irradiation of Nd:YAG (1.06 microns) laser light is directly absorbed by approximately 1 to 2 mm of arterial ...
