Abstract

A control system (100), and method for controlling tissue ablation, uses an optical time domain reflectometer data to differentiate abnormal tissue from normal tissue; and to control ablation of abnormal tissue by controlling a tissue ablative apparatus (108). Using data provided by an interferometric apparatus (106), the control system (100) provides control signals to the tissue ablative apparatus (100), controlling activation of the tissue ablation apparatus (108) so that normal tissue is left untreated while abnormal tissue is ablated.
