    Abstract: Herein it is described a magnetic medical device, and a system and method in which the magnetic medical device is implemented, that enables bipolar, minimally invasive, tissue ablation. The magnetic medical device may include magnetic means for magnetically coupling the medical device to a second medical device, wherein the magnetic medical devices may be separated by the tissue to be ablated. The magnetic medical device may also include electrical means for transferring electrical energy between the magnetic medical device and the second medical device. The magnetic medical device may further include control means whereby the physical location of the magnetic medical device may be controlled and thereby, as a result of the magnetic coupling, the physical location of the second magnetic medical device may also be controlled.
