Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for electroporation ablation therapy are disclosed. An apparatus may include a linear shaft including a distal portion positionable near a tissue wall. The linear shaft can be configured to deflect to position the distal portion near the tissue wall. The apparatus can include a plurality of electrodes disposed on the distal portion of the linear shaft, where the plurality of electrodes are configured to generate a pulsed electric field that produces an ablation zone in the tissue wall having a depth that is independent of an orientation of the distal portion relative to the tissue wall.
