Abstract
A medical device includes an expansion body, an elongated shaft portion, and a plurality of electrode assemblies. The expansion body includes a recessed portion that is recessed radially inward. The recessed portion includes a radially innermost bottom portion including a proximal side curved portion and a distal side curved portion, a proximal side upright portion, and a distal side upright portion. Each of the plurality of electrode assemblies includes an electrode portion disposed along the expansion body from the proximal side upright portion or the distal side upright portion to the bottom portion so as to face a receiving space defined by the recessed portion. The proximal side curved portion and the distal side curved portion deform in response to expansion and contraction of the expansion body. The electrode portion is in a floating state with respect to the distal side curved portion and the proximal side curved portion.
