Abstract
A cryoablation catheter system comprises a cryoablation catheter having a shaft, a guidewire lumen member and an expandable balloon attached to the shaft and the guidewire lumen member, and an auxiliary device configured for use in combination with the cryoablation catheter, the auxiliary device including a location sensor configured to provide a sensor output indicative of a location of the location sensor within a localization volume responsive to a localization field. A user-accessible relative position indicator is located on one or both of the cryoablation catheter and the auxiliary device and is configured to provide an indication of a relative position of the cryoballoon and the location sensor.
