Abstract: A bursitis treatment device (100; 200) for treatment of inflammation of a bursa (150; 502) in a patient's joint includes: a rinsing aid; a reservoir (101; 201) for holding the rinsing aid in fluid, freezing fluid or gaseous state; a supply line (103; 204, 208) for transporting the rinsing aid; a heat exchanger (104; 203) for controlling the temperature of the rinsing aid—such that the temperature of the rinsing aid enables to destroy cells causing the inflammation; an access device (209) for injecting the rinsing aid into the bursa (150; 205); and a drain (105; 210) for removing the rinsing aid from the bursa (150; 205) for elimination.

Abstract: A device for radio frequency ablation (RFA) of diseased tissue has a mesh or plate with a grid of holes for holding electrodes; a plurality of electrodes with adaptable active tip length; means for visualizing and probing insertion depth of each of the electrodes in the diseased tissue; a switch box, connectable to the electrodes and adapted to distribute current between the electrodes during the RFA process; a control unit for controlling the switch box; and means for monitoring the RFA process. The control unit is adapted to determine groups of electrodes, an electric mode for activation of each group of electrodes, a polarity for electrodes within each group of electrodes, an activation mode for the groups, a time interval and order for activation of the groups, a power output and current strength, and a duration of the RFA process.
