  • Publication number: 20170014185
    Abstract: An improved antenna for microwave ablation uses a triaxial design which reduces reflected energy allowing higher power ablation and/or a smaller diameter feeder line to the antenna.
    Type: Application
    Filed: July 15, 2016
    Publication date: January 19, 2017
    Applicant: NeuWave Medical, Inc.

  • Patent number: 7520877
    Abstract: Efficient ablation with multiple prong electrodes is obtained by electrically isolating the prongs from each other and rapidly switching electric power between the prongs, between a prong and a ground pad, or both. In this way, power distribution to a tumor can be controlled efficiently without the need to change probe geometry.
