Meet Artero
Advanced IVL for
Peripheral Artery Disease
Seamless Usability
One-click activation. Real-time feedback. Hands-free operation. No connector cables. Artero™ is peripheral IVL streamlined — so interventionalists can focus on patients, not clunky cables.
Advanced Crossing Capabilities
Artero™ is designed to navigate challenging anatomy with a reduced crossing profile and optimized shaft for superior pushability. We’re developing our rupture-resistant balloon to deliver consistent results, even in complex vessels.
Efficient and Predictable Therapy
The novel emitter design of Artero™ delivers sonic pressure at 4 Hz — twice as fast as current IVL technologies. With more pulses per catheter, experience predictable outcomes with consistent longitudinal and circumferential energy.

Future Studies
Peripheral Pivotal IDE Trial
We anticipate IDE approval from FDA to begin our peripheral pivotal trial in mid-2025. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of our peripheral IVL system in treating patients with severely calcified peripheral arterial disease.
