Abstract: An ablation probe (100; 200) comprising: an applicator (102; 202) arranged to apply radiation to heat surrounding tissue; a feeding cable (104; 204) arranged to supply electromagnetic energy to the applicator; a coolant flow path (106, 108) forming a coolant supply circuit; a tubular member (112; 212) housing at least part of the feeding cable (104; 204), wherein a part of the coolant flow path is defined by a space between the feeding cable and the tubular member; and a coupling body (114). The coupling body comprises: a cavity (116) in which the applicator (102; 204) is at least partly encapsulated; a coupling interface (118) at which the coupling body (114) is coupled to the tubular member; and a pointed distal tip (H4a) adapted for piercing tissue.
