Abstract
An ablation catheter includes an elongate shaft and an inflatable ablation member. The inflatable ablation member includes a flexible circuit with a conductor in electrical communication with an ablation electrode. The flexible circuit is disposed outside of and carried by an outer surface of an inflatable balloon. The inflatable ablation member includes an ultrasound monitoring member configured for use in monitoring at least one aspect of tissue ablation with the ablation electrode.
