Balloon Catheter
This channel includes news and new technology innovations for angioplasty balloon catheters (PTA).

Balloons are often used in combination with a stent to prop the treated vessel segment open. In addition to plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA), this section includes news about drug-coated balloon (DCB), valvuloplasty balloons and specialty cutting balloon.
