Abstract:
An atherectomy system includes an atherectomy burr having one or more blood flow enhancement features that permit an increased level of blood flow past the burr relative to a blood flow that would result absent the one or more flow enhancement features. A drive mechanism is adapted to rotatably actuate the atherectomy burr.
