An energy delivery device for treating tissue regions in a body conduit, such as a lung airway, may utilize one or more markers, rings, bands, or other visual indicators along an outer surface of the device body. The one or more visual indicators facilitate guidance of the device to effectively and efficiently treat the tissue according to a predetermined axial treatment as well as measure extension of a distal portion of the device, tissue length, and/or treatment length. The predetermined axial treatment may be contiguous, overlapping, or intermittently spaced apart as determined by the marker spacing distance.
L'invention concerne un dispositif d'administration d'énergie destiné à traiter des régions tissulaires dans un conduit corporel, tel qu'un conduit aérien pulmonaire, qui peut utiliser un(e) ou plusieurs marqueurs, anneaux, bandes ou autres indicateurs visuels le long d'une surface externe du corps du dispositif. Lesdits un ou plusieurs indicateurs visuels facilitent le guidage du dispositif pour traiter effectivement et efficacement un tissu selon un traitement axial prédéterminé et aussi mesurer l'allongement d'une partie distale du dispositif, la longueur du tissu, et/ou la longueur du traitement. Le traitement axial prédéterminé peut être contigu, chevauchant, ou espacé de manière intermittente séparément comme déterminé par la distance d'espacement du marqueur.
