The energy-delivery device (100) can be a tissue ablation device, such as an ablation probe (214), needle, etc. for ablating tissue as commonly known in the art. The electrosurgical systems (10) include at least one structure and/or operational characteristic for enhancing ultrasonic visibility of the energy-delivery devices (100) within tissue during ultrasonography.- 00 00) CIOI -AO_
