Zusammenfassung:Applicators, systems, and methods for delivering electrical energy to a target treatment region with large area surface electrodes are disclosed. In one example, a system may include a housing, a pulse generator, and a treatment applicator coupled to the pulse generator and configured to deliver sub-microsecond high-voltage electric pulses from the pulse generator. The treatment applicator may include a first and second electrodes coupled to a substrate, where the first and second electrodes are configured to provide a uniform gap between edges of the first and second electrodes.
