摘要：
Disclosed herein, among other things, is a device for providing a localized vasomodulation of a vessel. According to an embodiment, the device includes a thermal element configured to conduct thermal energy between the thermal element and a desired region of the vessel wall to elicit the localized vasomodulation of the vessel at the desired region. The device also includes a controller operationally connected to the thermal element. The controller is adapted to control the conduction of thermal energy between the thermal element and the desired region of the vessel wall to control the localized vasomodulation of the vessel at the desired region. In various embodiments, a sensor connected to the device provides feedback to the controller.
