Abstract
A system for modulating delivery of radiofrequency (RF) power to tissue, the system including an RF applicator configured for being positioned adjacent to tissue, an RF generator electrically coupled to the RF applicator, and a controller operatively coupled to the RF generator. The controller includes a tissue impedance measurement circuit operatively coupled with the RF applicator and configured for measuring an impedance of tissue disposed adjacent to the RF applicator, and a power modulation module configured to cause RF power to be delivered from the RF generator to the tissue disposed adjacent to the RF applicator so that an impedance of the tissue tracks a target tissue impedance as a function of time.
