Latest Patents
One of Jon Virgil Evans' latest patents focuses on an innovative electrophysiology catheter design. This invention relates to a method, device, and system for improved mapping and/or ablation of tissue. The device generally includes an elongate body and a distal assembly affixed to the elongate body. This assembly features a treatment electrode that has a conductive mapping region and a selectively conductive ablation region. The ablation region is designed to be conductive of high-frequency current while being substantially non-conductive of low-frequency current. Alternatively, the device may include a treatment electrode with a conductive mapping or ablation region and a region coated with an electrically insulated but thermally conductive layer.
