Appendix B - Maximum Orbit/Resulting Lumen Diameter
Table 3 shows the maximum orbit/resulting lumen diameter for each DB 360 Crown at incremental rotational speeds
for 50 passes (about 5 minutes of treatment time.) To demonstrate that the orbit of the DB 360 has a maximum limit,
Table 4 summarizes the results at the maximum sanding time for each DB 360 Crown diameter (maximum rotational
speed for 90 passes, about 8 minutes of treatment time). Quantitative angiography is recommended to determine the
minimum vessel diameter.

*These lumens are based on in vitro test results at approximately 5 minutes of treatment time (50 passes) at a rate of
approximately 1cm per second of travel speed, actual clinical results may vary.
**These lumens are based on in vitro test results at approximately 8 minutes of treatment time (90 passes) at a rate
of 1cm per second, actual clinical results may vary.
Note: A pass is defined as once down and back across the lesion. Orbit data presented is based on a 3 cm pass
distance at a travel rate of 1cm per second.
