Abstract:
A microwave ablation device (10) comprises a feed line (22), a microwave radiator and a device outer sheath (46) in which at least part of the feed line (22) is contained. The sheath (46) in use, allows an irrigation liquid to flow therethrough, wherein the feed line has a junction (38) with the radiator (22) has an outer conducting shield (28) terminating and insulated at the junction (38). The feed line (22) has a conductive core (32) that extends to the radiator (24). The conductive core forms a radiating element (34) electrically insulated from its surrounding environment. The radiator (24) is unbalanced.
