An exemplary catheter can be provided, which can include, for example a source fiber(s) configured to (i) receive a near infrared spectroscopic (NIRS) radiation, and (ii) provide the NIRS radiation to a portion(s) of a sample(s), a detection fiber(s) configured to receive a return radiation from the sample(s) that can be based on the NIRS radiation that was provided to the portion(s) of the sample(s), and an ablation electrode(s) configured to ablate the sample(s) based on the return radiation. The source fiber(s), the detection fiber(s), and the ablation electrode(s) can be integrated into the single sheath. The ablation electrode(s) can be a radiofrequency ablation electrode.
A catheter comprising:
A method for ablating at least one portion of at least one sample, comprising:
A non-transitory computer-accessible medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions for causing an ablation of at least one portion of at least one sample, wherein, when a computing arrangement executes the instructions, the computing arrangement is configured to perform procedures comprising:
