A conforming electrode for delivering ablative energy to tissue generally includes a plurality of flexible metal tubes, each having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end, and a distal end. The flexible metal tubes are arranged in a bundle with their longitudinal axes aligned parallel to each other. In addition, the flexible metal tubes are electrically coupled to a conductor for transferring ablative energy to the flexible metal tubes. The conductor may be a loop around the flexible metal tubes and to which the flexible metal tubes may be secured. The proximal ends of the flexible metal tubes may be secured to the distal end of a catheter shaft.
