To overcome excessive thermal damage in the vessel surroundings, which is major reason to restrict thermal device applications, we realize short heating time of 10 to 1 5s with uniform temperature distribution in the balloon. We employed thin fiber delivered laser enegry as a heat source to obtain sufficient heat power at the balloon t o attain rapid temperature rise. The laser energy then was used to heat contrast medi um which was irrigated in the balloon. The production of heated contrast medium liquid is useful to obtain uniform temperature distribution. Moreover, the irrigation of this liquid after laser shut-off produced sudden decrease of the temperature. We developed novel thermal balloon catheter using above mentioned design. We examined this unique balloon angioplasty using animal model in vitro and in vivo. The obtained results indicated that our short time heating concept obviously drastically improve chronic phase patency in thermal angioplasty.
