<p>Methods and devices for the non-thermal, electrically-induced temporary orpermanent closure of blood vessels. The subject methods and devices employ pulsedelectrical energy according to a defined regime to effect controlled occlusionof targeted blood vessels without heating the vessel and with minimal damageto adjacent tissue. The extent of vessel closure, i.e., temporary (vasoconstriction)or permanent (thrombosis), is controlled based on the manipulation of variousparameters of the electrical stimulation regime as well as the configurationof the electrodes used to apply the regime.</p> |
