ELECTRO-THERMAL THERAPY FOR THE TREATMENT OF DISEASED OR UNWANTED TISSUE

Abstract

A method for performing electrothermal therapy (ETT) includes inserting one or more electrodes into a target tissue, inserting one or more temperature sensors into the target tissue, selecting a pulse waveform for a plurality of electrical pulses, and delivering to the target tissue the plurality of electrical pulses having the selected pulse waveform through the one or more electrodes, wherein a delay between ones of the plurality of electrical pulses is selected based on a temperature reading from the one or more temperature sensors.
