1. A system for ablating tissue, the system comprising:
a treatment device including:
a balloon;
an elongate body having a proximal portion, a distal portion, and at least one lumen;
a shaft slidably disposed within the elongate body;
a handle, the handle being fixedly coupled to the proximal portion of the elongate body; and
a push button being in mechanical communication with the shaft, the push button being movable to a first position where the push button is depressed and a second position where the push button is released, movement of the push button to the first position exerts a force on the shaft and movement of the push button to the second position releases the force on the shaft so the shaft is freely movable with respect to the handle and the elongate body and causes the balloon to inflate,
a control unit including a fluid supply reservoir in fluid communication with the balloon and a pressure sensor, the control unit being configured to deliver fluid from the fluid supply reservoir to the balloon.
