METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TREATING TISSUE SITES USING ELECTROPORATION

摘要

Methods for treating a tissue site. Introducing at least first and second mono-polar electrodes to a tissue site of the patient. Positioning the at least first and second mono-polar electrodes at or near the tissue site. Applying an electric field in a controlled manner to the tissue site in an amount sufficient to produce electroporation of cells at the tissue site and below an amount that causes thermal damage to a majority of the tissue site.
