Atherectomy
An atherectomy is a minimally invasive treatment that uses advanced laser technology to clear away plaque and buildup in large blood vessels such as the coronary artery, which is responsible for bringing oxygenated blood to the heart.
An atherectomy can be performed on its own, however, it is often combined with angioplasty and stenting. These two procedures are typically performed to prevent peripheral arterial disease (PAD) from worsening. A combination of the three procedures ensures your blood vessels efficiently move blood through the body without any complications.
