Device for applying and monitoring of endovascular brachytherapy

摘要

Device for implementing endovascular brachytherapy, whereby in the region of the catheter tip, a beta or gamma radiator used to prevent restenosis after the removal of plaque from vessel walls emits radioactive radiation in order to suppress the structural vessel alteration, with simultaneous OCT-monitoring, whereby a brachytherapy is combined with an OCT catheter in an integrated unit.
