Abstract

An intraluminal ultrasound imaging device includes a flexible elongate member configured to be inserted into a body lumen of a patient, the flexible elongate member comprising a proximal portion and adistal portion. The device also includes an ultrasound scanner assembly disposed at the distal portion of the flexible elongate member. The ultrasound scanner assembly includes a flexible substrate;a transducer region positioned on the flexible substrate; and a control region positioned on the flexible substrate, wherein the transducer region and the control region are radially arranged relativeto one another. Associated devices, systems, and methods are also described.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims the benefit and priority of US Provisional Application US 62 / 596154, filed December 8, 2017, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates generally to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging, and more particularly to distal structures of intravascular imaging devices. For example, the distal structure may include a support structure and / or a flexible substrate that is coiled to facilitate efficient assembly and manipulation of the intravascular imaging device. Background technique [0004] Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging is widely used in interventional cardiology as a diagnostic tool for evaluating diseased vessels in the human body, such as arteries, to determine the need for treatment, to guide intervention and / or to assess its effectiveness. An IVUS device including one or more ultrasound transducers is delivered into the vessel and directe...
