Zusammenfassung:An ablation device and/or method of ablation may include placing one or more ablation electrodes in contact with a target tissue in a lumen. An electrical insulator may be positioned between the electrode and a lumen fluid and an electrical signal (for example a radio frequency signal) may be conveyed between the electrodes to heat and/or ablate the target tissue. Ablation may be bipolar and/or an in lumen dispersive electrode may be supplied for unipolar ablation. Ablation progress may be sensed and ablation may be adjusted to produce a desired level and/or geometry and/or distribution of ablation.
