Abstract: A method of displaying an image of the location of one or more low voltage structures in tissue is provided. The method includes receiving electrical mapping data corresponding to a portion of the tissue. The method further includes generating an image using the electrical mapping data. Electrical mapping values within at least one voltage range having two endpoints that bound the upper and lower limits of the voltage range are distinguishable from electrical mapping values outside the at least one voltage range. The two endpoints are selected to distinguish the one or more low voltage structures of the tissue from other portions of the tissue.

Abstract: A device and method for measuring fluid flow within a vessel having fluctuating elastic walls, such as, for example, an artery. The device includes a catheter; an internal stablizer or frame for establishing an invariant cross-section in the vessel wall; and a fluid velocity detecting system, such as, for example, a Doppler crystal transducer. The method for measuring includes the steps of stabilizing the vessel wall and measuring the velocity of fluid passing through the stabilized cross-section of the vessel wall. A method of treating and a method of diagnosing vascular disease by employing the device of this invention is also part of the invention.
