Abstract
A surgical ablation apparatus and method are disclosed for delivering controlled and uniform thermal energy to a target tissue area. The apparatus includes a heating element having a heating body formed from a microwave-absorbing material and a microwave antenna disposed entirely within the heating body. The microwave antenna is configured to distribute microwave energy substantially uniformly throughout the volume of the microwave-absorbing material, thereby converting microwave energy into heat for tissue ablation. The heating body may have planar, rectangular, curved, dome-shaped, or other geometries adapted to conform to planar or non-planar anatomical tissue surfaces. The microwave antenna may include spiral, serpentine, zig-zag, loop, linear, microstrip, or other antenna configurations shaped to follow the geometry of the heating body. The heating element may be incorporated into forceps-based instruments, planar applicator devices, or other surgical tools to provide uniform thermal delivery and predictable tissue ablation zones.
