A system and devices for ablation and removal of occlusions from blood vessels is provided. Laser culling systems and mechanical cutting systems are provided in catheter devices, the cutting systems operable to ablate, cut, dislodge, and otherwise remove occlusions within a blood vessel that may limit or prevent proper circulation. Catheter systems comprise distal end features adapted to cut and remove al least portions of an occlusion that generally correspond to dimensions of an inner lumen of a catheter.
