The disclosure pertains to an intravascular catheter for nerve modulation. The catheter includes an elongate member having a proximal end and a distal end, and an inflatable balloon secured adjacent to the distal end of the elongate member. The balloon includes an exterior surface and an interior surface defining a lumen. The lumen includes a section that is permeable to radiofrequency (RF) radiation. The section extends from the interior surface of the balloon to the exterior surface of the balloon. A first electrode is disposed within the inflatable balloon and indifferent electrodes are disposed external to the inflatable balloon.
