A flexible thermography catheter which includes an elongated body having a proximal end, a distal end, and a distal section, an expandable body comprising at least one independently movable support arm located at the distal section of the elongated body, at least one support arm retainer positioned on the distal section of the elongated body, and at least one sensor positioned on at least one of the distal section, the expandable body, and the at least one support arm. The at least one support arm retainer is configured to independently secure at least one section of the at least one support arm to the distal section of the elongated body in independently movable relation to each of the at least one support arm and the elongated body. |
