摘要: Methods and systems are provided for detecting tissue contact prior to and/or during energy delivery tissue. For example, the methods may include calculating temperature based on signal(s) received from a radiometer. The radiometer provide information about whether treatment device is in with tissue, thus feedback assist clinician properly contacting treating
