Abstract:
An energy delivery device for treating a patient includes a probe body; a plurality of guide sleeves positioned inside the probe body and adapted to be deployed radially away from the probe body and into tissue of the patient; and a plurality of elongate electrode elements each adapted to receive electrical treatment energy from an energy source and adapted to be deployed into the tissue through a corresponding deployed guide sleeve. The guide sleeves provide a structural pathway for guiding the electrodes along their intended trajectory and for determining the angle of deployment of the electrodes relative to the longitudinal axis of the probe body.
