A method for treating cancerous or benign conditions of an organ includes
the steps of inserting an E-field probe sensor to a depth in the organ
tissue, monitoring temperatures of the skin surface adjacent the organ,
positioning two or more energy applicators around the organ, setting the
initial relative phase delivered to each energy applicator to focus the
energy at the E-field probe positioned in the organ tissue, delivering
energy to the applicators to selectively irradiate the organ tissue,
adjusting the power level to be delivered to each applicator during
treatment based on the monitored skin temperatures, monitoring the energy
delivered to the applicators, determining total energy delivered to the
applicators and displaying the total energy in real time during the
treatment, and completing the treatment when the desired total energy dose
has been delivered by the energy applicators to the organ. Either focused
or non-focused may be employed.
