Abstract
Ablation device including a probe structurehaving a proximal endand a distal end. Probe structureincludes a tubular first catheter, a tubular second cathetersurrounding the first catheter and a tubular guide catheter extending within the first catheter. The first cathetercarries a cylindrical ultrasonic transduceradjacent its distal end. The transduceris connected to a source of electrical excitation. The ultrasonic waves emitted by the transducerare directed at the heart wall tissue. Once the tissue reaches the target temperature, the electrical excitation is turned on and off to maintain the tissue at the largest temperature. Alternatively, the transduceris subjected to continuous excitation at one power level and upon the tissue reaching the target temperature, the power level of the continuous excitation is switched to a second lower power level.
