Results for tag: "Atherectomy Procedure"

Atherectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat peripheral artery disease (PAD). It involves the removal of plaque buildup from the walls of the arteries, which can reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other cardiovascular events. The procedure is typically performed using a catheter-based device, which is inserted into the artery and used to cut away the plaque. Atherectomy can be used to treat both superficial and deep vessels, and is often combined with other treatments such as angioplasty or stenting. The atherectomy procedure market is a rapidly growing segment of the surgical procedures market. It is driven by the increasing prevalence of PAD, as well as the development of new technologies and devices that make the procedure more effective and less invasive. The market is expected to continue to grow in the coming years, as more patients seek treatment for PAD and new technologies are developed. Some companies in the atherectomy procedure market include Abbott, Boston Scientific, Medtronic, and Spectranetics. Show Less Read more
