Abstract

An imaging medical device includes a shaft main body portion having an image acquiring lumen and a guide wire lumen. The shaft main body portion includes a first shaft proximal portion in which the image acquiring lumen is disposed, and a second shaft proximal portion in which the guide wire lumen is disposed, with the two being bifurcated. First and second hub portions are interlocked with the first and second shaft proximal portions respectively, and a transducer unit is fixed to a drive shaft. Reference line X represents the axis line of the shaft main body portion, θ1 represents the inclination of the central axis of the first hub portion relative to the reference line, θ2 represents the inclination of the central axis of the second hub portion relative to the reference line, and the relationship of |θ1|>|θ2| is satisfied.
