[Dr. Angelo Marino]
For me, it 100% has changed the way I treat these, because in the past, it was get across, try and make a channel with angioplasty. If it's acute, then you can do some lytic therapy or thrombectomy. For the chronic stuff, it was just getting across angioplasty and then relining, not really getting much luminal gain. It's all about having a good lumen at the end, a good lumen size. What this device allows you to do is to achieve that. I use this in 100% of my stent occlusion cases now.
