SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 0

Population: 'Catheter Performance Evaluation: Tip Deflection': Data was missing for one subject for this question. 'OCT Performance Evaluation: Visualization of side branches': N/A in 9 subjects who did not have side branches visualized.

Device performance as assessed by Investigator's input by evaluating both performance of the device and quality of the OCT image as it relates to the ability to identify layered and non-layered structures and the ability of the directional marker bands to aid in orientation of the catheter while advancing through the CTO.
