Abstract

A medical device including a flexible elongate member configured for navigation through vasculature of a patient to a target treatment site. A distal portion of the elongate member including a first balloon portion that is inflatable to an expanded state, a second balloon portion that is inflatable to an expanded state, and a cavitation generator. When the balloon portions are in their expanded states within the vasculature, a cavity is defined between the elongate member and the target treatment site, exterior to the first and second balloon portions, and between the first and second balloon portions. The cavitation generator is configured to deliver energy to a fluid within the cavity to cause the fluid to undergo cavitation to generate a pressure pulse wave within the fluid.
