Various aspects of the present invention are directed towards apparatuses, systems, and methods that may include a tissue ablation system. The tissue ablation system may include a plurality of ablation devices, each ablation device being configured to provide ablation energy, at least one ablation generator configured to provide ablation power to at least one of the plurality of ablation devices, and a controller configured to cause each of the plurality of ablation devices to selectively receive ablation power and configured to cycle through activation of a plurality of ablation states.

Cycling of ablation devices

Disclosed herein are devices, systems, and methods for monitoring a formation of an iceball at a cryoablation needle. An example method includes receiving an impedance from at least one electrode in an electrode arrangement that is disposed at a cryoablation needle distal portion. The electrode arrangement is configured to engage the iceball as the iceball is formed over the cryoablation needle distal portion so as to cause a change in the impedance. The example method includes determining one or more physical attributes of the iceball based on a rate of the change in the impedance.

Cryoablation iceball formation monitoring devices, systems, and methods

Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed apparatuses, systems, and methods that may include a microwave ablation system. The microwave ablation system may include a microwave ablation needle, a controller, a microwave generator configured to provide ablation power to the microwave ablation needle, and a pump configured to provide a coolant to the microwave ablation needle at a flow rate, such that the microwave ablation needle emits microwave radiation based on the received ablation power and the controller is configured to perform a plurality of predefined processes having an associated applied ablation power and coolant flow rate.

Microwave ablation systems and methods having adjustable ablation parameters and modes of operation

Various aspects of the present invention are directed towards apparatuses, systems, and method that may include a tissue ablation system. The tissue ablation system may include an ablation device, an ablation generator, and a controller configured to initiate a pre-ablation procedure in a medium, and during the pre-ablation procedure monitor temperature data and/or power data.
