A microwave ablation system probe (non-powered) is a single-use surgical tool used to deliver microwave energy to specific tissue sites during procedures like tumour removal, cyst treatment, or endometrial ablation. When connected to an external generator, it emits microwaves to heat and destroy targeted tissues, often accessed via minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopy or percutaneous insertion.
These probes are typically classified as single-use medical devices and are regulated based on their intended use and risk level, though classification varies by jurisdiction. They are supplied sterile and designed for one-time clinical use, requiring proper disposal after a single procedure to maintain safety and hygiene standards.
