ELECTRODE ASSEMBLIES WITH NON-CONTACT TEMPERATURE SENSING FOR THERMAL MEASUREMENTS

摘要

Devices for directing electromagnetic energy to tissue during cosmetic procedures, as well as methods of treatment and methods of device manufacture. An electrode assembly includes a housing, an electrode, and a thermal sensor arranged inside the housing. The electrode, which includes an aperture, is configured to deliver electrical energy to a targeted area of a patient. The thermal sensor is positioned relative to the aperture of the electrode to provide a field of view through the aperture to a surface of the targeted area. The thermal sensor is configured to generate sensor data indicative of a temperature at the surface of the targeted area, and to thereby provide non-contact temperature sensing.
