Abstract
Devices, kits, and methods described herein are usable for medical treatments by generating local maxima using constructive interference of multiple oscillator outputs. Where constructive interference occurs between the oscillator waves, the output signal can have significant strength to cause heating and coagulation at a bleeding vessel, for instance, while at areas with little interaction (or with destructive interference) there is insufficient power dissipated by the output signal to cause heating sufficient to cause coagulating heating.
