Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for intravascularly-induced neuromodulation or denervation. Neuromodulation may be achieved via direct and/or via indirect application of energy or neuromodulatory agents to target neural matter, or to vascular structures that support the target neural matter. In some embodiments, parameters of the target neural matter, of non-target tissue, or of the apparatus may be monitored via one or more sensors for controlling the neuromodulation or denervation. Such monitoring data optionally may be utilized for feedback control of the neuromodulation or denervation.
