Peripheral CHIP cases - limb salvage procedures with special emphasis on debulking atherectomy : 500+ cases

Specialization in debulking atherectomy approach - coronary and peripheral for optimal revascularization and better long-term outcomes in complex disease states such as bifurcation stenosis, ostial stenosis, long diseased segments and in-stent re-stenosis where conventional approaches yield sub-optimal results.
