Abstract
A laser catheter device includes a main housing containing a main lumen defined within its inner edge. The housing further includes one or more subsidiary lumens surrounding the main lumen. An electrically insulated strip lies along an outer edge of the housing. The strip contains several vertical cavity surface-emitting lasers powered by an external power source. The lead from the lasers to the power source extends through the subsidiary lumen. The device further includes an inflatable balloon surrounding the insulated strip and communicates with the main lumen. The balloon is inflated by an external source of inflation fluid.
