Abstract: A circumferential ablation catheter is provided that is particularly useful for ablating a
circumferential region of tissue in a tubular region of or near the heart, such as a pulmonary vein.
The catheter comprises an elongated tubular catheter body having an outer wall, proximal and
distal ends, and a lumen extending therethrough. The catheter also comprises a generally tubular
inner support member having proximal and distal ends and a lumen extending therethrough. A
proximal portion of the inner support member extends into the lumen of the catheter body, and
a distal portion ofthe inner support member extends outside the catheter body. A circumferential
ablation element, such as an ultrasound transducer, is mounted on the distal portion of the inner
support member outside the catheter body. A moveable tube extends through the lumen of the
inner support member and through the catheter body. The moveable tube is longitudinally
moveable relative to the inner support member and catheter body and has a distal end that
extends beyond the distal end of the inner support member. An inflatable balloon is provided
generally in surrounding relation to the circumferential ablation element. The inflatable balloon
has a proximal end attached, directly or indirectly, to the distal end of the catheter body and a
distal end attached, directly or indirectly, to a portion of the moveable tube that extends beyond
the distal end of the inner support member. Longitudinal movement of the moveable tube
relative to the catheter body and inner support member causes movement of the distal end of the
balloon relative to the proximal end of the balloon to thereby change the length and shape of the
expanded balloon.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système audio s'appuyant sur un réseau de microphones qui supporte des représentations de scènes auditives utilisant des expansions harmoniques de second ordre (ou d'ordre supérieur) sur la base des signaux audio produits par le réseau de microphones. Dans un mode de réalisation, plusieurs capteurs audio sont montés sur la surface d'une sphère à rigidité acoustique. Le nombre et l'emplacement des capteurs audio sur la sphère sont destinés à permettre aux signaux audio produits par ces capteurs d'être décomposés en un ensemble de faisceaux propres dont au moins un est d'ordre deux (ou supérieur). La formation de faisceaux (par exemple guidage, pondération et sommation) peut s'appliquer ensuite aux sorties de faisceaux propres résultantes de façon à générer au moins une voie des signaux audio pouvant être utilisés pour rendre de manière exacte une scène auditive. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, l'invention concerne l'utilisation d'autres formes que des sphères, de sphères à souplesse acoustique et/ou la mise en place de capteurs audio dans au moins deux motifs concentriques.
