Plaqate Atherectomy System
Standard Guide Wire Compatibility
Existing atherectomy systems rely on device-specific wires that are prone to fracture and complicate the procedural workflow.
Effective Plaque Ablation
Plaqate sufficiently modifies plaque to enable balloon angioplasty and stent deployment so that blood flow is restored.
Reduced Risk of Vessel Damage
Rates of perforation and dissection associated with Plaqate atherectomy system are lower than the current standard of care.

Goal 1:
Quantify damage of the
current standard of care and our device on a
material mimicking the
coronary arteries.
Goal 2:
Qualitatively measure
the efficacy of
the current standard
and our device in
ablating the calcium
mimick.
