Abstract
Systems and methods provide protection for patient tissue during radiofrequency ablation treatments. Exemplary techniques involve placing a conductive or semiconductive pad assembly near a target tissue, and administering electrical current through the target tissue while protecting adjacent tissue with the pad assembly. The pad assembly may include a material having an electrical conductivity value that is equal to or greater than the electrical conductivity value of the target tissue.
