There is provided herein a catheter for resecting an undesired tissue from a body of a subject, the catheter comprising a tip section in a shape of a cylinder or a cylinder's sector having a central longitudinal axis, the tip section comprising: a central longitudinal lumen; a first set of optical fibers configured to transmit laser radiation outside a distal extremity of the tip section, in a direction parallel to the central longitudinal axis; a second set of optical fibers configured to transmit laser radiation, transversely to the central longitudinal axis; wherein the first set of optical fibers and the second set of optical fibers are selectively operable to resect and/or ablate the undesired tissue.

Apparatus and methods for resecting and/or ablating an undesired tissue

A system for testing an ablation system comprising an optical box and a catheter connector is disclosed. The system comprises a qualitative beam assessment device, a quantitative beam assessment device, and a processor. The qualitative beam assessment device has a camera configured to record signals related to a beam profile of a beam emitted by the optical box. The quantitative beam assessment device has an energy sensor configured to measure a beam energy of the beam. The processor is configured to receive the signals from the beam assessment devices, determine a qualitative condition of the beam based on the beam profile signals, and determine a quantitative condition of the beam based on the beam energy signals.

Devices and methods for testing ablation systems

Distal tip of an atherectomy/thrombectomy catheter with suction port

Systems for enabling delivery of very high peak power laser pulses through optical fibers for use in ablation procedures preferably in contact mode. Such lasers advantageously emit at 355 nm wavelength. Other systems enable selective removal of undesired tissue within a blood vessel, while minimizing the risk of damaging the blood vessel itself, based on the use of the ablative properties of short laser pulses of 320 to 400 nm laser wavelength, with selected parameters of the mechanical walls of the tubes constituting the catheter, of the laser fluence and of the force that is applied by the catheter on the tissues. Additionally, a novel method of calibrating such catheters is disclosed, which also enables real time monitoring of the ablation process. Additionally, novel methods of protecting the fibers exit facets are disclosed.
