20090292342 | Methods and Systems for Treating BPH Using Electroporation - A system for treating benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) of a prostate. At least first and second mono-polar electrodes are configured to be introduced at or near a BPH tissue site of the prostate gland of the patient. A voltage pulse generator is coupled to the first and second mono-polar electrodes. The voltage pulse generator is configured to apply sufficient electrical pulses between the first and second mono-polar electrodes to induce electroporation of cells in the BPH tissue site, to create necrosis of cells of the BPH tissue site, but insufficient to create a thermal damaging effect to a majority of the BPH tissue site. | 11-26-2009 |
20120071872 | Systems for Treating Tissue Sites Using Electroporation - A system for treating a tissue site. At least first and second mono-polar electrodes are configured to be introduced at or near a tissue site of the patient. A voltage pulse generator is coupled to the first and second mono-polar electrodes. The voltage pulse generator is configured to apply sufficient electrical pulses between the first and second mono-polar electrodes to induce electroporation of cells in the tissue site, to create necrosis of cells of the tissue site, but insufficient to create a thermal damaging effect to a majority of the tissue site. | 03-22-2012 |

20150201996 | ELECTROPORATION CONTROLLED WITH REAL TIME IMAGING - A method and a system for producing the method are disclosed whereby irreversible electroporation pulses are produced across an area of target tissue. A medical imaging device is used to create an image of the irreversible electroporation in real time thereby making it possible to determine the area of electroporation and the extent of results obtained and to adjust the positioning of electrodes and/or the current as needed based on the image being viewed. | 07-23-2015 |

20150150618 | System and Method For Creating Radio-Frequency Energy Electrical Membrane Breakdown For Tissue Ablation - A method of non-thermally ablating undesirable tissue in the body by application of pulsed, bi-polar, instant charge reversal electrical fields of sufficient energy to cause complete and immediate cell membrane rupture and destruction. Energy is delivered through radio frequency pulses of particular frequencies, wave characteristics, pulse widths and pulse numbers, such that enhanced physical stresses are placed on the cell membrane to cause its immediate and complete destruction thereby spilling the entire cell content and membrane constituents into the extracellular space without denaturing proteins so as to enable animmunological response to destroy and remove the target tissue and similarly marked tissue elsewhere in the subject. | 06-04-2015 |
