Abstract

See full text

Tissue clamp systems and methods assess the transmurality of a lesion created by ablation. Exemplary clamp systems for ablating tissue include a first jaw, an ablation element mounted on the first jaw, a second jaw, and a sensing element mounted on the second jaw. The sensing element can be configured to assess transmurality of a lesion created by the ablation element. Systems may also include a connection mechanism that connects the ablation element and the sensing element to a connector for connecting the ablation element and the sensing element to an ablation system.
