Summary:To provide a balloon catheter and a balloon catheter system capable of inhibiting a temperature gradient in a balloon from occurring even when bending of a shaft occurs, and efficiently diffusing heated fluid in the balloon.SOLUTION: A balloon catheter includes: a shaft having a lumen for delivering fluid; a balloon attached to the tip of the shaft, which communicates with the lumen; and a first electrode and a second electrode disposed in the lumen. A gap between the first electrode and the second electrode in a longitudinal direction of the shaft is 30-150 nm.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】本発明は、シャフトの屈曲が起きた場合でもバルーン内の温度勾配が発生するのを抑制し、バルーン内に効率良く加熱された流体を拡散可能なバルーンカテーテル及びバルーンカテーテルシステムを提供することを目的とする。【解決手段】流体を送通可能なルーメンを有するシャフトと、上記シャフトの先端に取り付けられ、上記ルーメンと連通したバルーンと、上記ルーメン内に配置された第1の電極及び第2の電極と、を備え、上記シャフトの長手方向における上記第1の電極と上記第2の電極の間隔が30mm~150mmである、バルーンカテーテルを提供する。【選択図】図2
