Abstract

A system includes an intraluminal device configured to be positioned within a body lumen of a patient, the intraluminal device comprising a proximal portion and a distal portion, wherein the intraluminal device further comprises: a sensor disposed at the distal portion; a proximal connector comprising a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) configured to interface with a user console and disposedat the proximal portion; and a plurality of electrical wires connecting the sensor and the proximal connector, wherein the plurality of electrical wires are terminated at an angle on the PCBA such that the PCBA and electrical wires terminated thereon together are configurable to form a cross-section of 2 mm2 or less.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to ultrasound imaging systems, and in particular to wire connections for imaging catheters, such as intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) catheters. Background technique [0002] Diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound catheters have been designed for use in many areas of the human body. In the cardiovascular system, a common diagnostic ultrasound method is intraluminal ultrasound imaging with intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) as a specific paradigm of intraluminal imaging. Typically, a single rotating transducer or an array of transducer elements is used to transmit ultrasound at the tip of the catheter. The same transducer is used to receive echoes from tissue. The signals generated from the echoes are transmitted to a console which allows processing, storage, display or manipulation of the ultrasound-related data. [0003] Intraluminal imaging catheters, such as ICE catheters (e.g., Siemens Acunav, St. Jude ...
