French term or phrase: ballon rayant
Description of an angioplasty:
"Prédilatations au ballon rayant."

I can't find any other examples of "rayant" being used to describe a balloon, so I am a little bit unsure about the translation.

Anyone come across this before?

Explanation:
Nope, nothing to do with the points scored, when playing the Bloody Red Baron video gam, for shooting down barrage balloons, but a balloon catheter that "scratches" or "scores" the inside of the artery.

The AngioSculpt SCORING BALLOON CATHETER is an essential new tool in the treatment of simple to complex lesions, including in-stent restenosis (ISR) and type C lesions. As demonstrated in clinical studies, AngioSculpt was used successfully in treating fibro-calcific, bifurcation and ostial lesions. When used for pre-dilatation prior to stenting, AngioSculpt has been proven to yield a 33%-50% greater luminal gain than either direct stenting or pre-dilatation with a conventional angioplasty balloon catheter.1
• Flexible nitinol SCORING element with three rectangular spiral struts works in tandem with a semi-compliant balloon to SCORE the target lesion
• Balloon inflation focuses uniform radial forces along the edges of the nitinol element, SCORING THE PLaque and resulting in a more precise and predictable outcome
