    摘要: An ultrasonic ablation catheter comprises a catheter body (1), an ultrasonic treatment energy converter set (2), an ultrasonic imaging energy converter set (3), a control handle (4) and an energy converter interface (5). The catheter body (1) is of a cylindrical structure; the ultrasonic treatment energy converter set (2) is disposed on the lateral surface of the far end of the catheter body (1), is of a sheet shape or an unclosed ring shape and can emit line-shaped or subrounded ultrasonic beams. The crossing distance between every two adjacent ultrasonic treatment energy converters (21) is more than or equal to 1 cm. Each ultrasonic imaging energy converter (31) is positioned between every two adjacent ultrasonic treatment energy converters (21). The control handle (4) is disposed at the near end of the catheter body (1). The energy converter interface (5) comprises a first interface (51) and a second interface (52). After sympathetic nerve fibers are ablated by the ablation catheter, the nerve fibers can be cut into sections which are not continuous mutually and are completely separated in the middle; moreover, the coverage distance between the ultrasonic treatment energy converters (21) is long (more than or equal to 1 cm), so that mutual chemotaxis and self repair of the completely separated nerve fibers are avoided and stability of an effect of removing the sympathetic nerve fibers is improved.
