Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for determining the position of an endovascular device within the body are provided. The system can include a catheter having a tip portion that can generate sound waves which can be detected by auscultation devices which allows the position of the catheter tip to be triangulated. The acoustic triangulation system can be used in conjunction with ECG and/or ultrasound information to further refine the location of the catheter tip.
