Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods are provided for drug delivery and vascular remodeling, particularly the use of a high-energy electromagnetic field to impart kinetic energy to the drug molecule or to tough calcific lesions during balloon angioplasty. The receiver is capable of absorbing electromagnetic energy and configured to oscillate upon absorbing electromagnetic energy, wherein oscillation of the receiver creates a physical motion that imparts kinetic energy to one or more drug molecules and enables or enhances penetration and/or diffusion of the drug molecules into a selected tissue. Embodiments are also provided in which a balloon catheter, with or without a drug-coated stent, comprises the receiver.
