Abstract
The disclosure describes a system that may be used to deliver a plurality of therapies using one portable device. The system includes a pop-up interactive display that is a touch screen for controlling the system while delivering therapy through the use of the delivery device. The touch screen is used by a physician to control the therapy or communicate data to or from another device. In addition, the therapy delivery device may include an operation indicator, a signal generator, a connector board port, a connector board that removably couples to the connector board port, and a fluid pump. Generated signals may be used by a peripheral accessory connected to the generator through the connector board coupled to the connector board port. In particular, the generator may generate radio frequency (RF) energy for the purpose of prostate tissue ablation.
