Abstract
A catheter for treating a lesion within a body lumen comprises an elongated element, a sheath, and shock wave emitters enclosed by the sheath. At least one of the shock wave emitters is a different size than at least one of the other emitters. Providing a smaller shock wave emitter at the distal end of the catheter can help make the catheter easier to navigate through the body lumen.
