A return pad of an electrosurgical system is disclosed. The return pad includes a plurality of conductive members and a plurality of sensing devices. The conductive members are configured to receive radio frequency current applied to a patient. The sensing devices are configured to detect at least one of the following: a nerve control signal applied to the patient; and a movement of an anatomical feature of the patient resulting from application of the nerve control signal.

Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed towards apparatuses, systems, and methods for electroporation ablation. The electroporation ablation catheter may include an electrode assembly comprising one or more electrodes configured to generate electric fields in target tissue in response to a plurality of electrical pulse sequences delivered in a plurality of therapy sections, and an ultrasound transducer configured to generate a first set of ultrasound signals during a first electrical pulse sequence of the plurality of electrical pulse sequences and generate a second set of ultrasound signals after an end of the first electrical pulse sequence and before a beginning of a second electrical pulse sequence, the second electrical pulse sequence being an electrical pulse sequence subsequent to the first electrical pulse sequence.

The invention relates to a method for the non-invasive fragmentation of residual biomaterial after bone augmentation, and to a device specifically adapted for said method.
