As shown in fig. 1 and2, a laser ablation catheter 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an optical fiber bundle 10 and a tube structure 20, where an output end of the optical fiber bundle 10 is located at a distal end of the tube structure 20 and has an inclined surface 11 that forms an angle with an extension axis of the tube structure 20. The tube structure 20 is used for accommodating the optical fiber bundle 10, and binding the optical fiber bundle 10, so as to improve the aggregation performance of each optical fiber.
The output end of the optical fiber bundle 10 releases laser energy, and the inclined surface 11 is arranged at the output end, so that the optical fiber bundle 10 releases the laser energy towards one direction, namely towards a target area needing laser irradiation, the directivity of the released laser energy is stronger, the laser energy of the optical fiber bundle 10 is concentrated in the target area, the intensity of the laser energy irradiated to the target area is greatly increased, and the condition of insufficient laser irradiation energy is avoided. Wherein the arrows in fig. 1 indicate the release direction of the laser energy.
The laser ablation catheter 100 provided by the present embodiment is applicable to a variety of surgical scenarios including, but not limited to, ELCA and RDN.
As an embodiment, the output end of the fiber optic bundle 10 is located at the distal end of the tube structure 20, with an inclined surface 11 that is angled with respect to the axis of elongation of the tube structure 20; the method specifically comprises the following steps: the inclined surface 11 forms an included angle with the axis of the extending direction of the laser ablation catheter, which is larger than or equal to 20 degrees and smaller than or equal to 40 degrees. The included angle is set to be between 20 deg. and 40 deg. so that the laser energy is released from the optical fiber bundle 10 to the ablation site with a short travel.
Referring to fig. 3, the optical fiber bundle 10 includes a plurality of first optical fibers 12, wherein the core diameter of the first optical fibers 12 is smaller than the core diameter of the optical fiber bundle 10; the first optical fiber is used for delivering the first laser and releasing the first laser at the sympathetic nerve of the target site. In particular applications, the proximal end of the first optical fiber 12 receives the first laser light from the control system, releases the first laser light at the output end, and the released first laser light can irradiate the sympathetic nerve of the site to be ablated, thereby enabling the output end of the fiber bundle to irradiate the sympathetic nerve of the site to be ablated. Wherein the first laser may be continuous or transmitted in pulses.
As one embodiment, the bend radius of the first optical fiber 12 is less than 10mm and the core diameter of the first optical fiber 12 is less than 200um. The smaller the bending radius, the greater the flexibility of the optical fiber, so that the first optical fiber 12 has better flexibility, and the laser ablation catheter 100 can enter into a blood vessel with a large angle bend, thereby expanding the application range of the laser ablation catheter 100. For example, the laser ablation catheter 100 provided in this embodiment can be easily introduced into the renal arteries from the arterial trunk with a bend approaching 90 ° from the arterial trunk to the left and right renal arteries, and thus can be well applied to RDN surgery. In addition, the first optical fiber 12 provided in this embodiment not only makes the optical fiber bundle 10 easily pass through the blood vessel, but also reduces the power loss of the optical fiber bundle 10 and improves the light transmission efficiency of the optical fiber bundle 10. Preferably, the optical fiber bundle 10 includes at least seven first optical fibers 12, which effectively ensures the stability of the working performance of the optical fiber bundle 10. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, it is possible that the optical fiber bundle 10 includes a first optical fiber 12 having a large bend radius.
As one embodiment, the core numerical aperture of the first optical fiber 12 is greater than or equal to 0.22 and less than or equal to 0.5. In particular applications, the first optical fiber 12 may be selected to have a corresponding core numerical aperture, depending on the circumstances.
Illustratively, the first optical fiber 12 is a silica optical fiber, and includes a core, a cladding that is wrapped around the core, and a coating layer that is coated on the outside of the cladding. Wherein the coating layer comprises polyimide and acrylic ester materials, so that the high temperature resistance of the coating layer is greatly improved; the cladding is a polymeric material that can be used at relatively low laser power and near infrared wavelengths.
Referring to fig. 2, 4 and 5, the optical fiber bundle 10 further includes a second optical fiber 13, and the second optical fiber 13 is used for sensing the temperature of the distal end of the optical fiber bundle 10 at the ablation site. In a specific application, the control system sends out the second laser to the second optical fiber 13, according to the effect of the second optical fiber 13, the control system receives the central reflection wavelength of the second optical fiber 13, and according to the central reflection wavelength, the temperature of the part to be ablated at the output end of the optical fiber bundle 10 can be judged, and the second optical fiber 13 plays a role of a temperature sensor. Therefore, when the first laser irradiation is carried out on the part to be ablated, the temperature of the part to be ablated can be monitored in real time, and the overhigh or overlow temperature is avoided, so that the stability and the safety of the first laser irradiation are improved. Of course, in other embodiments, the optical fiber bundle 10 may be provided without the second optical fiber 13.
As one embodiment, the second optical fiber 13 has a bending radius of greater than or equal to 10mm and less than or equal to 25mm; the core diameter of the second optical fiber 13 is greater than or equal to 8um and less than or equal to 12um. The arrangement is such that the second optical fiber 13 has a degree of flexibility to facilitate the passage of the bundle 10 through blood vessels of various degrees of curvature.
As an embodiment, the second optical fiber 13 is provided with one or more sets of fiber gratings. In this embodiment, the second optical fiber 13 is provided with a set of fiber gratings. In specific application, the number of the fiber gratings can be set according to actual requirements, and the number of the fiber gratings is not limited.
In this embodiment, the second optical fiber 13 is used as a temperature sensor to sense the temperature of the distal end of the optical fiber bundle 10 at the ablation site, and further, the second optical fiber 13 may be set as a resistance temperature device or a thermocouple or the like to perform a temperature sensing function, wherein the temperature measurement accuracy is +/-0.1 ℃.
As an embodiment, the optical fiber bundle 10 comprises a second optical fiber 13. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, it is possible that the optical fibre bundle 10 comprises two or three or four second optical fibres 13.

Preferably, the second optical fiber 13 is disposed in the second optical fiber disposition channel 24, and the installation is faster and more convenient than the installation of the first optical fiber 12 and the second optical fiber 13 in the same optical fiber disposition channel (because the radial dimensions of the first optical fiber 12 and the second optical fiber 13 are different, resulting in difficult installation and low concentration of the optical fibers).
