Acoustic ablation assisted intra-cardiac echocardiography catheter

By combining acoustic ablation and ultrasound imaging on a catheter with needle guidance, a transseptal puncture needle may be guided using real-time imaging, and puncture by the guided needle is aided by acoustic ablation. Acoustic ablation may be controlled spatially and/or for dosage and may not...

Zusammenfassung:By combining acoustic ablation and ultrasound imaging on a catheter with needle guidance, a transseptal puncture needle may be guided using real-time imaging, and puncture by the guided needle is aided by acoustic ablation. Acoustic ablation may be controlled spatially and/or for dosage and may not require contact with the tissue.
