Abstract
A medical device is disclosed which may include the use of carbon nanotube paper. The medical device may be provided in the form of a balloon catheter wherein the nanotube paper is mounted about an electrode and into which an electrically conductive fluid is dispersed. An elastomeric sheath may then be provided about the nanotube paper. Actuation of the electrode may cause generation of microbubbles within the fluid and thereby cause the paper to expand.
