Claim 18:
19. A method, comprising:
inserting, into a cavity of an organ of a patient, a distal portion of a probe, the distal portion comprising an expandable membrane and a probe maneuvering assembly (PMA) disposed within the expandable membrane;
manipulating a proximal portion of the probe external to the patient, the proximal portion comprising a handle, and the probe comprising an elongated shaft extending from the handle to the PMA and defining a longitudinal axis of the probe;
manipulating the handle to thereby cause a change in length of the PMA and thereby a change in internal volume of the expandable membrane; and
manipulating the handle to thereby deflect the PMA from the longitudinal axis and thereby deflect the expandable membrane from the longitudinal axis.
