ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for performing diagnostics and intravascular therapies. A guidewire anemometer can be used to measure the velocity of fluid flowing through the vasculature. An in-line anemometer can be used to measure the volumetric flow rate of fluid transported out of a patient's body. A heated balloon catheter can be used to deliver heat therapy no a vessel wall in a patient's vasculature.
