<p>Electrocoagulation apparatus (10) including an array of more than two RF energized needles (12), and an RF generator (28) for selectively energizing at least two of the needles (12) so that energy passes therebetween. The needles (12) may be arranged in rows, and the rows may be staggered. Alternatively, the needles (12) may be arranged in a matrix of rows and columns. The needles (12) may be generally equally spaced from each other or randomly arranged. Preferably the needles (12) are spaced from each other corresponding to a width of a vein. The apparatus is used for non invasive electro coagulation of varicose veins. <IMAGE></p> |
