This invention is a transfer device and catheter assembly (10) for the delivery of treatment elements to a selected location within the intraluminal passageways of a patient as part of an intraluminal radiation system. The transfer device (12) includes a gate member that permits the treatment elements to leave the transfer device (12) only if the catheter (14) is attached thereto. A pressure indicator (56) provides a visual indication of the fluid pressure within the transfer device (12), and a pressure relief valve (56) provides for a release of the fluid if the pressure exceeds a predetermined pressure. Transfer device (12) also includes a treatment element detection system, low power indicator, a counter system, and an electromagnetic locking mechanism to prevent the opening or closing of the gate member when less than all of the treatment elements are in the transfer device.

On décrit un dispositif de transfert et un ensemble cathéter (10) qui s'utilisent comme système de rayonnement intraluminal pour acheminer des éléments de traitement vers un emplacement déterminé à l'intérieur des voies intraluminales d'un patient. Le dispositif de transfert (12) inclut un élément d'obturation qui n'autorise les éléments de traitement à quitter le dispositif de transfert (12) que quand le cathéter (14) est fixé à ce dernier. Un indicateur de pression (56) fournit une indication visuelle de la pression par fluide à l'intérieur du dispositif de transfert (12), et une soupape de décharge (56) libère le liquide quand la pression dépasse un seuil préétabli. Le dispositif de transfert (12) inclut également un système de détection d'un élément de traitement, un indicateur de puissance faible, un système de comptage et un mécanisme électromagnétique de verrouillage pour empêcher l'ouverture ou la fermeture de l'élément d'obturation tant que tous les éléments de traitement ne sont pas placés dans le dispositif de transfert.
