Abstract: The present disclosure includes a method of locating a treatment site of a patient and treating a vascular disease, comprising inserting a wire into a vessel of the patient. In some examples, the wire has a distal end and a proximal end located opposite the distal end and is coupled to a control device at the proximal end. The method may comprise an at least one light- emitting diode (LED) disposed in a distal portion of the wire, the distal portion is adjacent the distal end. According to some examples, the method comprises illuminating, via the control device, the at least one LED within the vessel of the patient. The method may comprise locating, extracorporeally, the at least one LED. In some examples, the method includes positioning the wire via the at least one LED so that the distal end is located adjacent to the treatment site.

Abstract: The disclosure includes a controller and a sheath having an open proximal sheath end coupled to the controller, an open distal sheath end configured for insertion into a vascular system of a patient, and a working lumen extending through the sheath. The system may include a wire extending from the controller through the working lumen, the wire having a distal wire end configured to mechanically treat a vessel wall of a treatment segment, a length of the distal wire end defining a length of the treatment segment. The working lumen may be configured to slidably receive the wire and allow for a passage of a fluid about the wire therethrough to chemically treat the treatment segment. When the system receives a first input the distal wire end may mechanically treat the vessel wall. When the system receives a second input and/or a third input, the system may deliver the fluid.
