Abstract

The present disclosure provides for a device and methods of use to endoluminally ablate and/or occlude a body vessel using a current to perform resistive heating. The device includes a resistive coil having thermistor properties where the resistance of the coil changes as a function of temperature. A control unit will detect the voltage, current, and resistance in the coil during the heating of the coil to determine the temperature of the coil. As occlusion occurs and the cooling effect of blood flow decreases, less power will be required to maintain the coil at a desired temperature. Detecting a large decrease in required power will indicate to the control unit that the body vessel has become occluded.
