More Information
Summary:An interventional device includes an elongate shaft (101) with a longitudinal axis (A-A′), and an ultrasound detector (102). The ultrasound detector (102) comprises a PVDF homopolymer foil strip (103). The foil strip (103) is wrapped around the longitudinal axis (A-A′) of the elongate shaft (101) to provide a band having an axial length (L) along the longitudinal axis (A-A′). The axial length (L) is in the range 80-120 microns.
