Abstract: Medical devices and methods for making and using medical devices are disclosed. An example device may include an elongate shaft having a distal end region. An expandable framework may be disposed adjacent to the distal end region. An ultraviolet light-emitting member may be disposed within the expandable framework. A covering may be disposed along an outer surface of the expandable framework.

Abstract: Aspects of positioning devices, methods, and systems are disclosed. An exemplary method comprises: moving a distal end of a tube into a body, the tube including a lumen and a shaft in the lumen, the shaft having a transducer; sending a first signal to the transducer; passing, with the transducer, in response to the first signal, a wave energy into the body; receiving, with the transducer, a reflected portion of the wave energy; generating, with the transducer, a second signal in response to the reflected portion of the wave energy; determining, with a processor, an indicia of the body in response to the second signal; and identifying, with the indicia, a targeted issue in the body; positioning the distal end of the tube at the targeted tissue in response to the indicia; and removing a portion of the targeted tissue with the distal end of the tube.
