A targeted tissue region in a body is treated by a tissue heating element attached to a carrier. The carrier is intended, in use, to be temporarily mounted to an exterior of a catheter body, such as an endoscope. The catheter body is deployed, with the carrier mounted on it, into the targeted tissue region. The tissue heating element is operated, e.g., to form one or more tissue lesions, after which the catheter body is retrieved from the targeted tissue region. The carrier can then be removed from the catheter body, allowing the catheter body to be subsequently used for another purpose. |
