摘要:
An imaging, guidance, planning and treatment system integrated into a single unit or assembly of components, and a method for using same, that can be safely and effectively deployed to treat and ablate unwanted masses of adipose tissue in all medical settings, including in a physicians office or in an outpatient setting. The system utilizes the novel process of Radio-Frequency Electrical Membrane Breakdown (???* or "RFEMB") to destroy the cellular membranes of unwanted adipose tissue without damaging sensitive anatomical structures in the treatment, area. The system preferably comprises at least one EM B treatment probe 20, at least one ultrasound scanner, at least one trackable anesthesia needle 300, and at least one controller unit for at least partially automating the treatment process.
