Abstract
An apparatus that includes a catheter and multiple shock wave discharge points positioned within a balloon along the catheter between proximal and distal ends of the catheter, wherein the distal end extends distally beyond the balloon. An electronic controller includes software and is operably coupled to control firing and production of shock waves at each shock wave discharge point of the multiple shock wave discharge points.
