The catheter further includes an ultrasound transmission member extending longitudinally through the lumen of the catheter body, the ultrasound transmission member having a proximal end connectable to an ultrasound transducer. The catheter also includes a distal head positioned on the distal end of the ultrasound transmission member. The catheter also has a coil with a proximal end connected to the distal end of the catheter body, and a distal end connected to the distal head. The coil defines a lumen communicating with the lumen of the catheter body. The ultrasound system also includes a sonic connector for coupling the ultrasound transmission member to the transducer. Different configurations are disclosed for the distal head and the ultrasound transmission member.
