Disclosed is a transfer device usable in a system for intraluminal treatment of a selected site in a body of a patient by at least one treating element advanced from a translucent storage sleeve having a lumen into a lumen of a separate catheter by means of pressurized fluid. A system for detecting the presence or absence of the treating element in the translucent storage sleeve comprises a light source including a jacketed fiber optic bundle disposed on a first side of the storage sleeve to produce a plane of light that intersects at least a portion of the storage sleeve lumen. A linear array of photosensors is disposed on a second side of the storage sleeve so as to measure light from the light source. A microprocessor compares the amount of light measured by the photosensors to a reference amount corresponding to the amount of light measured by the photosensors when the treating element is not within the lumen of the storage sleeve.
