Difference Between Low‐Speed and High‐Speed Rotational Atherectomy Using Two Types of Guidewires

Guidewire type and rotational speed significantly influence directional control during RA. High-speed ablation with an extra-support wire minimizes directional discrepancy and may allow more predictable and controlled lesion modification.

Abstract

Guidewire type and rotational speed significantly influence directional control during RA. High-speed ablation with an extra-support wire minimizes directional discrepancy and may allow more predictable and controlled lesion modification.
