The Rotational Atherectomy System 

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a prevalent cardiovascular condition characterized by the narrowing of arteries due to the buildup of plaque. 

The rotational atherectomy system, also known as rotablation, is an advanced interventional cardiology procedure designed to address heavily calcified coronary arteries.
