Abstract
- A patent has been issued to Intuitive Surgical Operations Inc. for systems and methods related to flexible antennas. The patent describes a flexible instrument, such as a catheter, that can be used in minimally invasive medical procedures. The instrument includes an antenna with a patterned cylindrical structure made of a flexible material and a more conductive material plated onto it. The antenna can generate a radiation pattern to ablate tissue, and its pitch lengths can be adjusted to vary the radiation pattern. The patent provides detailed descriptions of the instrument's components and their configurations. [Extracted from the article]
