A method and an apparatus for reducing coupled electrical energy resulting from
an electromagnetic field. Embodiments of the present invention provide for an elongate
body having a proximal end portion, a middle portion, and a distal end portion
and at least one coil wound about at least one of the proximal end portion, the
middle portion, and the distal end portion, the coil to provide for filtering of
radio frequency (RF) signal-coupled electrical energy.
