Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A tissue ablation system comprising:an elongate member;a distal tip assembly associated with a distal portion of the elongate member, the distal tip assembly including an energy delivery structure;an energy delivery structure associated with the distal tip assembly, the energy delivery structure being configured to operate in an ablation mode and a diagnostic mode; anda controller configured to:cause the energy delivery structure to ablate target tissue using a first beam of energy in the ablation mode;sense one or more parameters of the target tissue by operating the energy delivery structure in the diagnostic mode wherein the energy delivery structure emits a second beam of energy; andcontrol operation of the energy delivery structure based on the sensed one or more parameters of the target tissue.
