Percutaneous radio-frequency ablation system generators deliver controlled heat through the skin to target and destroy specific non-cardiac tissues, such as tumours, precancerous lesions, or nerves. Clinically, these devices are used in minimally invasive procedures to treat conditions like chronic pain, fibroids, or skin cancers without major surgery.
These systems are typically regulated as medical devices, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards before market authorization. They are usually sold as standalone generators that connect to external probes or catheters, which are not included in the device package.
