Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems of initiating renal neuromodulation via denervation caused by suitable modality such as irreversible electroporation.SOLUTION: An elongated shaft 16 is sized and configured to deliver an energy delivery element to a renal artery via an intravascular path. Thermal or electrical renal neuromodulation may be achieved via direct and/or indirect application of thermal and/or electrical energy to heat or cool, or otherwise electrically modulate, neural fibers that contribute to renal function, or of vascular structures that feed or perfuse the neural fibers.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】不可逆的エレクトロポレーション等の好適な様式によって引き起こされる除神経を介して、腎神経調節を惹起するシステムを提供する。【解決手段】細長いシャフト１６は、血管内経路を介してエネルギー送達要素を腎動脈に送達するようなサイズにされ、そのように構成される。熱的および電気的腎神経調節は、腎機能に寄与する神経線維、または神経線維を補給もしくは灌流する血管構造を加熱もしくは冷却する、あるいは電気的に調節するための、熱エネルギーおよび／または電気エネルギーの直接適用を介して、および／またはそれらの間接適用を介して、達成され得る。【選択図】図５
