Abstract: Ablation probes and methods of their use. Example probes include probe circuits configured to provide identifying information for the probe itself. The probe circuits may sense probe usage and/or age to determine probe end of life (EOL). In response to EOL, the probe circuit generates an output indicating EOL. The probe electronic circuit may also be configured to monitor probe usage via impedance or other features, independent of such operation by an ablation pulse generator.

Abstract: Methods and devices for performing ablation. In some examples an ablation delivery system is configured to allow separate voltage levels of a capacitor stack to be accessed for use in therapy delivery. Ablation therapy systems switchable between current and voltage controlled output are described. Methods of treating a patient using adjustable interphase or interpulse delay are disclosed as well.

Abstract: Novel and versatile apparatuses for delivering one or more of thermal ablation and irreversible electroporation therapies to target tissue. In some examples, a device includes at its distal end a plurality of electrodes that can be advanced or retracted to pierce patient tissue, with a variable position and size shaft electrode provided near the distal end of the device to allow manipulation of therapy fields to achieve various tissue destruction field shapes. A number of method of use examples are described as well.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing and controlling ablation therapy. Examples provide adaptive therapy outputs that allow a user to select among various feedback parameters, parameter limits, and therapy profiles, to be implemented by an ablation system. The ablation system adaptively issues therapy by monitoring one or more feedback parameters to determine changes to make to therapy outputs.
