Abstract

A plaque scoring catheter comprises a catheter body (10) having a balloon (12) or other radially expansible shell at its distal end. A non-axial scoring structure (14) is carried over the shell and scores a stenosed region in a blood vessel when the balloon is inflated therein. The non-axial scoring structure may be formed directly on the balloon or may alternatively be part of a cage structure (140) which floats over the balloon. Exemplary configurations for the scoring structure include helical, serpentine, and irregular.
