    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for managing an esophagus of a subject during a medical procedure, such as cardiac tissue ablation or bronchial tissue ablation. Managing the esophagus may include displacing the esophagus, imaging the esophagus, and/or measuring temperature at one or more locations inside the esophagus. One example esophageal management system generally includes a tube configured for insertion through a mouth and into the esophagus of the subject. The tube generally includes a first port located at a proximal end of the tube and in fluid communication with a distal portion of the tube via a first path, a second port located at the proximal end of the tube, and a third port located between the proximal end of the tube and a distal end of the tube and in fluid communication with the second port via a second path.

    Abstract: A cam portion (22) is attached to a first position (111) on a measurement target (110). A moving portion (24) is attached to a second position (112) on the measurement target (110) and is movable with respect to the cam portion (22) in an expanding/contracting direction of the measurement target (110). A strain portion (25) is attached to the moving portion (24) so as to fit along the measurement target (110), and is pressed against the cam portion (22). A strain of the strain portion (25) changes when the measurement target (110) expands or contracts and the moving portion moves (24) accordingly. An optical fiber sensor (10) has a temperature measurement portion (16) for measuring a temperature, and a strain measurement portion (17) for measuring a strain, and is attached to the strain portion (25).
