See full text

A method for treating a lung may include moving a balloon through an airway of the lung while the balloon is in a deflated configuration, and inflating the balloon to cause one or more radio frequency electrodes disposed adjacent an outer surface of the balloon to contact tissue defining the airway. The method also may include delivering radio frequency energy from the one or more radio frequency electrodes to damage nerve tissue.
