Abstract: Transurethral systems and methods for delivering electrical energy and controlled, mild heating to a prostate tissue of a patient for destruction of cancerous and/or hyperplastic tissue. A method includes positioning an elongate urethral probe having an expandable member with electrode elements at a target location in the patient's urethra, and inflating or expanding at the target location. Secondary electrodes are positioned within or adjacent to the prostate tissue and spaced from the electrode elements of the expandable member, and an alternating electrical current flow is established between the electrode elements of the expandable member and the one or more secondary electrodes. Current delivery can be selected so as to destroy or ablate cancerous cells of the prostate tissue.

Abstract: An electromagnetic device and method of operation thereof are disclosed. The electromagnetic device contains an electromagnetic field generator, a microcurrent generator and a photonic accumulator. The electromagnetic field generator generates broadband electromagnetic fields to substantially envelope a subject placed in proximity thereto. The subject is placed in contact with microcurrent electrodes so as to permit a broadband microcurrent to flow through the subject or along the surface of the subject. A photonic accumulator is positioned proximate the subject to receive biophotons emitted therefrom and to activate the biophotons with a light source.

Abstract: A system and method for the light activation of healing processes uses a light source that is directed onto the body of a subject. The light source may generate monochromatic light and/or coherent light. The subject is positioned within a chamber having interior reflective surfaces that permit the reflection of photonic energy emitted from the body of the subject to be reflected back to the subject. The light source activates the photonic emission process. In an alternative embodiment, reflective surfaces may be brought into proximity or into direct contact with the subject and the light source directed onto the subject. The light source may be held in fixed position with respect to the subject or moved so as to be directed to an area of the subject. The light source may have a fixed intensity or varying intensity, such as by pulsing or modulating light source.
