Superior deliverability with new scoring balloon
The newly designed Philips Scoring Balloon Catheter RX – AngioSculpt Evo – has superior deliverability and the power to safely dilate resistant lesions [1, 2, 3]. It comes with a combination of changes, including a smaller tip for smoother lesion entry, a hydrophilic coating to reduce friction, and a laser-cut hypotube for enhanced flexibility. The helical nitinol scoring elements wrap the balloon around its circumference to minimize slippage and lock to the lesion, delivering up to 25 times [1] the force of a non-compliant balloon. This device is available for treatment of coronary artery stenosis, including in-stent restenosis.

Introduction of new laser system
The new Philips Laser System – Nexcimer – offers plug-and-play simplicity for coronary and peripheral atherectomy and lead extraction procedures. Smaller, lighter, and more maneuverable than the previous generation [4], the system starts up within 30 seconds, uses standard medical-grade 100-240V outlets, and has an intuitive touchscreen interface with guided workflow prompts that help lessen the need for technician training. It is the only system compatible with catheters with Level I clinical data for ISR atherectomy and that can also support lead extraction procedures (the removal of pacemaker or defibrillator leads around the heart) [5, 6].
