The AngioSculpt Scoring Balloon Catheter
The AngioSculpt Scoring Balloon Catheter is a unique product, offering an innovative nitinol scoring element which scores the plaque circumferentially and provides a precise and predictable solution to even the most difficult lesion challenges.
Technology That Sets a New Standard
- Flexible nitinol scoring element with three or four rectangular
spiral struts works in tandem with a semi-compliant
balloon to score the target lesion
- Balloon inflation focuses uniform radial forces along
the edges of the nitinol element, scoring plaque circumferentially and
resulting in a precise and predictable outcome
- Low crossing profile ~2.7F in 2.0mm-3.5mm diameter AngioSculpt catheters compatible with .014" guidewires, 5F sheaths and 6F guiding catheters. 4.0mm and 5.0mm diameter AngioSculpt catheters are compatible with .014" or .018" guidewires, 6F sheaths and 7F guiding catheters
- Semi-compliant balloon material allows the physician to tailor the device size to the vessel (2–20 atm) depending on the size of the balloon
- Two radiopaque markers indicate the working ends of the scoring balloon
- Nitinol-enhanced balloon deflation for excellent
rewrap and recross capabilities
Electropolished struts provide a margin
of safety, resulting in zero perforations
and no slippage.

Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts the AngioSculpt Scoring Balloon Catheter to sale by or on the order of a physician.
