Abstract
Tissue treatment systems and methods are disclosed. In an embodiment, a tissue treatment system includes a LV signal generator, a HV signal generator, and a controller. The LV signal generator is used to produce a LV tissue impedance measurement signal, and the HV signal generator is used to produce a HV tissue treatment signal having a voltage that is at least five times greater than a voltage of the LV tissue impedance measurement signal. The controller controls when the HV tissue treatment signal produced using the HV signal generator, and when the LV tissue impedance measurement signal produced using the LV signal generator, are delivered to patient tissue via an active electrode and a return electrode. The LV tissue impedance measurement signal is used to estimate the impedance of the patient tissue, which is used to control the voltage and/or current of the HV tissue treatment signal.
