Abstract

sonda de ablação eletrocirúrgica e sistema compreendendo a mesma. o tecido é tratado utilizando-se uma alimentação de potência de radiofrequência, conectado a um aplicador tendo uma câmara carregada com um gás eletricamente não-condutivo, circundado por uma parede dielétrica fina. uma tensão de radiofrequência é aplicada em um nível suficiente para ionizar o gás dentro de um plasma e para capacitivamente acoplar o plasma ionizado com o tecido, para suprir corrente de radiofrequência para remover ou de outro modo tratar o tecido.
