Saline-enhanced catheter for radiofrequency tumor ablation

摘要

Catheter for the radiofrequency ablation of tissue, comprising at least one pair of bipolar electrodes adapted to function in bipolar mode, each bipolar electrode comprising supply channels adapted for the perfusion of saline solution around the electrodes, the catheter further comprising at least two end electrodes arranged towards opposed ends of the catheter, on either side of the pair of bipolar electrodes, said end electrodes adapted to function in monopolar mode.
