A method for treating a vascular lesion within or adjacent to a vessel wall within a body of a patient by generating a plasma that creates pressure waves adjacent to the vascular lesion, includes the steps of (i) generating light energy in the form of a source beam with a single light source; (ii) positioning a multiplexer in a beam path of the source beam, the multiplexer including an optical element; (iii) receiving the source beam with the optical element of the multiplexer; (iv) splitting the source beam into a first guide beam and a second guide beam with the optical element of the multiplexer; (v) directing the first guide beam to a first light guide with the multiplexer; and (vi) directing the second guide beam to a second light guide with the multiplexer.

Multiplexer for laser-driven intravascular lithotripsy device

A catheter system for treating a vascular lesion within or adjacent to a vessel wall within a body of a patient includes a single light source that generates light energy, a first light guide and a second light guide, and a multiplexer. The first light guide and the second light guide are each configured to selectively receive light energy from the light source. The multiplexer receives the light energy from the light source in the form of a source beam and selectively directs the light energy from the light source in the form of individual guide beams to each of the first light guide and the second light guide.
