COMPOUND LESION ALIGNMENT DEVICE

摘要

A medical probe assembly for ablating tissue, includes a radio frequency ablation probe and an alignment device. The alignment device comprises a surface and plurality of apertures through which the ablation probe can be guided into the target region of the patient. The apertures may be uniformly or non-uniformly spaced and parallel or non-parallel from each other. The apertures may be indexed from each other in a two dimensional plane. By adding one or more bosses or recesses to the apertures, the apertures may indexed from each other in a three dimensional space. Removable inserts may be added to the recesses to adjust the depth of the recesses.
