Abstract: A microwave ablation system includes a microwave ablation antenna assembly, a generator, a first fluid supply source, and a second fluid supply source. The microwave ablation antenna assembly includes a fluid port for receiving fluid. The generator is coupled to the microwave ablation antenna assembly. The first fluid supply source is configured to be selectively in fluid communication with the fluid port to supply a first fluid to the microwave ablation antenna assembly. The second fluid supply source is configured to be selectively in fluid communication with the fluid port to supply a second fluid to the microwave ablation antenna assembly.

Abstract: A cable assembly includes a rigid portion, a flexible central portion, and a radiating portion. The rigid portion is configured to couple to a source of electrosurgical energy and to prevent fluid ingress towards the source of electrosurgical energy. The flexible central portion extends from the rigid portion and includes an inner conductor, a dielectric disposed about the inner conductor, and a conductive braid disposed about the dielectric. The radiating portion extends from the central portion and is configured to deliver electrosurgical energy to tissue.

Abstract: A system includes an energy source configured to generate therapeutic energy, a treatment probe, an ultrasound imaging device configured to generate ultrasound images, a second tracking sensor configured to track a location of the ultrasound imaging device, and a tracking system configured to receive location information from the first and second tracking sensors and to overlay the ultrasound images with a graphical representation of the treatment probe on a display based on the location information. The treatment probe includes an antenna configured to treat tissue with the therapeutic energy and a first tracking sensor integrated in the antenna and configured to track a location of a distal tip of the antenna.
