CA 2666661

A catheter and catheter system can use energy tailored for remodeling and/or removal of target material along a body lumen, often of atherosclerotic material of a blood vessel of a patient. An elongate flexible catheter body with a radially expandable structure may have a plurality of electrodes or other electrosurgical energy delivery surfaces to radially engage atherosclerotic material when the structure expands. An atherosclerotic material detector system may measure and/or characterize the atherosclerotic material and its location, optionally using impedance monitoring.

La présente invention concerne un cathéter et un système de cathéter capable d'utiliser de l'énergie adaptée à ses besoins pour remodeler et/ou retirer de la substance cible le long d'une lumière anatomique, souvent de la substance athéroscléreuse d'un vaisseau sanguin d'un patient. Un corps de cathéter souple et de forme allongée comportant une structure à déploiement radial peut comporter une pluralité d'électrodes ou d'autres surfaces d'administration d'énergie électrochirurgicale de façon à toucher radialement la substance athéroscléreuse lorsque la structure se déploie. Un système détecteur de substance athéroscléreuse peut mesurer et/ou caractériser la substance athéroscléreuse et son emplacement, éventuellement par surveillance d'impédance.
