Schematic of the distal catheter. A distally fixed Cu/Ni-thermocouple monitors the ablation temperature. The loop-tuning circuit is embedded between the distal and proximal shaft. The loop is isolated from the electrical conductor wires and tuned with a circuit to magnetic resonance imaging resonance frequency.
