Publication number: 20190290350Abstract: There is provided in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the invention a method and/or a device of treating tissue near a first lumen comprising inserting an energy emission element into a second lumen and delivering energy in an amount sufficient to cause one or more spaced apart areas of tissue damage at preselected locations in tissue near the first lumen. There is also provided a method and/or a device for treating a carotid artery wall, for example, to reduce signal conduction. There is also provided a method and/or a device for treating a wall of a lumen in a limb, for example, to increase blood flow. There is also provided a method and/or a device for treating a wall of a heart, for example, to stop abnormal signal propagation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2019Publication date: September 26, 2019Applicant: CardioSonic Ltd.Inventors: Ariel SVERDLIK, Yehuda ZADOK, Or SHABTAY, Iris SZWARCFITER, Avital SCHAUDER, Krishna J.

Publication number: 20130218068Abstract: A method and system of forming at least one therapeutic reservoir in a target tissue by trapping therapeutics in at least a portion of said target tissue by selectively applying energy to said target tissue. Optionally, trapping comprises preventing said therapeutics in said target tissue from being carried away by a circulation. The system can include a catheter with both an ultrasonic element and a drug delivery port, optionally connected to control circuitry.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2011Publication date: August 22, 2013Applicant: CardioSonic Ltd.Inventors: Ariel Sverdlik, Or Shabtay, Iris Szwarcfiter, Avital Schauder
