An automated inflation/deflation system for use in connection with a dilatation balloon catheter in vascular procedures that greatly facilitates the operator's control of the inflation or deflation of the balloon and control of maneuvering the proximal end of the catheter for proper positioning of the balloon inside the patient's vasculature. By use of a pressure transducer and a display unit, the operator can monitor information relating to inflation pressure and inflation time. In addition, the system provides for safety features for effectuating a rapid reduction in balloon pressure.
