Первый контекст:

With reference to FIGS. 4A-4E, the distal section 15 (illustrated without any tip or ring electrodes for clarity) comprises a generally linear (one dimensional) but flexible tubular member 42 with shape memory, as provided by the support member 38, ****of a predetermined 2D configuration**** (FIG. 4E) comprising at least two side-by-side loops A and B that are generally coplanar with each other and are generally joined or intersecting (or having an appearance of being joined or intersecting) with each other at their closest location X to resemble an “infinity” symbol or a lazy 8 (used interchangeably herein).



Это -- выдержка из Подробного описания изобретения (Патент США https://patents.google.com/patent/US20150342531)

Здесь напрашивается перевод: "заданной двумерной конфигурации"

Однако тут сложность в необходимости соблюдения единства терминологии --

далее такой контекст:

It is understood that the term “loop” as used herein does not necessarily mean a closed ***configuration*** accomplished with a single continuous flexible tubular member, but rather that one or more flexible tubular members may be configured to resemble or have the appearance of a loop for purposes of enabling contact with tissue surface in a pattern of a generally closed ***configuration*** so as to surround or encircle a respective region, for example, a respective PV ostium,

где по смыслу configuration следовало бы перевести как (замкнутый) контур.

Может, все-таки везде следует перевести как "конфигурация"? В первом вхождении термина, как ни старался, не смог адекватно использовать слово "контур"!

Спасибо заранее!
