A lead has a flexible lead body which extends from a proximal end to a distal end. The lead body has a conductor coupled with an electrode. At least a portion of the conductor includes a layer of echogenic material encapsulated by the lead body. Alternatively, the echogenic material includes a coating of material. Optionally, the layer of echogenic material is disposed on at least a portion of the conductor or on one or more portions of the conductor.
