Embodiment Construction

[0083] Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the inventive concepts, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.

[0084] Provided here is a temperature measurement probe for generating a temperature map for multiple sites (patient tissue surfaces). The probe may include one or more sensors, such as infrared light detectors or other infrared sensors. A probe may include a reusable portion, and one or more disposable portions. The probe may comprise an elongate member and measure the temperature at various locations on the sides of the elongate member and / or in front of the distal end of the elongate member.

[0085] now refer to figure 1 , illustrating the system of the inventive concept. System 10 includes chamber temperature measurement device 100 , electronics module 150 , and display 155 . Device 100 may be configu...

Abstract

A temperature measurement probe for a patient is provided. The probe includes a sensor assembly and produces a temperature map comprising temperature information for multiple patient locations.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 61 / 417,416, filed November 27, 2010, by Flaherty et al., entitled "ABLATION AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT DEVICES," and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] Embodiments of the invention relate generally to the field of tissue temperature monitoring, and more particularly, to ablation and temperature measurement devices and systems that monitor tissue temperature during energy delivery. Background technique [0004] Ablation therapy is a medical procedure that uses various forms of energy (typically, extreme heat or cold forms) to ablate dysfunctional tissue. Ablation therapy is used to treat tumors in the lungs, liver, kidneys, bones and other body organs and to treat heart rhythm conditions such as atrial fibrillation. Typically, the procedure is performed by an interventional radiologist or cardiac electrophysiologist under image gu...
