Abstract
An intraluminal imaging device that provides both flexibility and pushability is disclosed. The device includes a flexible elongate member configured to be positioned within a body lumen of a patient, and an imaging assembly disposed at the distal portion of the flexible elongate member and configured to obtain intraluminal image data. The distal portion of the flexible elongate member includes a region, proximal to the imaging assembly, that is less hard and/or more flexible than the proximal portion of the flexible elongate member. The more flexible region includes an inner member, an adhesive surrounding the inner member, a communication line embedded within the adhesive and configured to carry signals associated with the imaging assembly, and an outer polymer layer surrounding the adhesive.
