Abstract

An ultrasonic emitting apparatus (10) for cauterizing and ablating tissue. Ultrasonic waves are focused at an intended region of operation by an elongated waveguide (15), thus reducing damage to adjacent unintended tissue. The waveguide (15) can be inserted into structures of the body through overlying organs. The device may be used, for example, to ablate protruding portions of spinal disks.
