Title:
ELECTROSURGICAL APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING RF AND/OR MICROWAVE ENERGY INTO BIOLOGICAL TISSUE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2023027197
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide an electrosurgical apparatus and device for delivering radiofrequency and/or microwave frequency energy into biological tissue.SOLUTION: An electrosurgical instrument for delivering electromagnetic energy to biological tissue comprises an active tip having an electrically conductive protective hull mounted on an underside thereof. The hull has a smoothly contoured convex undersurface, and is formed as a shaped piece of electrically conductive biocompatible material having a low coefficient of friction with biological tissue (e.g., stainless steel) which has the dual function of (i) physically protecting tissue that lies underneath the active tip and (ii) providing an electrical connection between a coaxial feed line and the active tip.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
