摘要:
#$%^&*AU2012232978A120121018.pdf#####Device for ablating body tissue ABSTRACT A system for ablating tissue comprises an elongate flexible shaft (110) having a proximal portion, a distal portion (112) and a rotation axis and an ultrasound transducer (114) adjacent the distal end (112) of the elongate flexible shaft (110), wherein the ultrasound transducer (114) is configured to emit a beam of ultrasound energy, The beam of ultrasound energy is configured to ablate target tissue without contact between the ultrasound transducer and the target tissue and forms a continuous lesion in the target tissue while the distal portion (112) of the elongate flexible shaft (110) is moving.
