Devices and methods for controlled inflation of a vessel lumen or a hollow portion of another organ located within a patient. The devices are typically catheter-based having an expandable member fixed to a distal end of the catheter. The devices and methods typically comprise deploying the expandable member percutaneously to a target location, expanding the expandable member, and performing an expansion procedure. The expandable member expands at a controlled rate of inflation during a medical procedure.
