Abstract

Systems for nerve and tissue modulation are disclosed. An example system may include an intravascular nerve modulation system including an elongated shaft having a proximal end region and a distal end region. The system may further include one or more ablation electrodes affixed to the distal end region of the elongated shaft. One or more ground pad electrodes may be provided and connected to a processor configured to modulate the impedance of each circuit completed between the ablation electrodes and the ground pads.
