Embodiment Construction

[0045] The present technique generally addresses the modulation of nerves, including those innervating the kidneys. Various techniques are available to partially or completely disable neural pathways, such as those innervating the kidneys. Purposeful application of energy (e.g., radiofrequency energy, mechanical energy, acoustic energy, electrical energy, thermal energy, etc.) to tissue can induce one or more desired thermal effects on a localized area of ​​the renal artery and adjacent areas of the renal plexus (RP). Heating effect, the renal plexus (RP) is tightly located within or close to the adventitia of the renal arteries. For example, purposeful application of energy can achieve neural modulation along all or a portion of the renal plexus (RP).

[0046] Specific details of several embodiments of the technology are described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. While many embodiments are described herein with respect to cryotherapy, electrode-based, tra...
