Abstract
A system includes a laser catheter and a rotating optical member to receive a laser beam along an optical path and rotate to a selected position to redirect the laser beam from the optical path onto one or more selected optical fibers of a laser catheter, wherein a distal end of the laser catheter irradiates an endovascular structure.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- directing a laser beam along an optical path onto a rotating optical member;
- and
- rotating the optical member to redirect the laser beam from the optical path onto one or more selected optical fibers of a laser catheter;
- and
- irradiating, by a distal end of the laser catheter, an endovascular structure.
