Abstract
A lead body for implantation includes at least one segmented electrode with a first electrode segment and a second electrode segment radially positioned about a lumen and electrically isolated from each other. A sectioned hypotube includes a distal end and a proximal end and a first conducting section and a second conducting section each extending between the distal and proximal ends. The first conducting section of the sectioned hypotube is coupled to the first electrode segment adjacent the distal end and the second conducting section of the sectioned hypotube is coupled to the second electrode segment adjacent the distal end.
