Zusammenfassung:METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ENHANCING ULTRASONIC VISIBILITY OF ENERGY-DELIVERY DEVICES WITHIN TISSUE In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, electrosurgical systems (10) are provided generally including at least one energy-delivery device (100) for delivering energy to tissue when inserted or embedded within tissue. The energy-delivery device (100) can be a tissue ablation device, such as an ablation probe (214), needle, etc. for ablating tissue as commonly known in the art. The electrosurgical systems (10) include at least one structure and/or operational characteristic for enhancing ultrasonic visibility of the energy-delivery devices (100) within tissue during ultrasonography. - 00 00) -AO_
