Abstract
A therapeutic delivery device is provided wherein a delivery body is supported by an elongate member such that the body may rotate as it delivers therapeutic to a target site.

The delivery body may be cylindrically shaped, spherically shaped or shaped in various other configurations. In one embodiment the delivery body contains tracks that may roll back and forth over a target site to dispense therapeutic. In another embodiment, the delivery heads of the delivery body have internal valves that open and close in order to dispense therapeutic.
