Abstract
A system and method for performing a medical procedure is provided. The system includes a device having a shaft that generally extends from a proximal end to a distal end along a longitudinal axis. The distal end of the device is configured to identify a topographical profile of a lumen, wherein the topographical profile is determined by traversing the device a distance along the longitudinal axis of the lumen. The device also includes at least one of a plurality of projections movably coupled to the distal end and configured to provide a coupling with the lumen by extending in a direction substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, and at least one radiopaque marker coupled to the distal end and designed to provide a contrast during imaging of the device.
