Claim 0:
1. A medical device system comprising:
an electric field generating circuit configured to generate one or more electric fields; and
control circuitry in communication with the electric field generating circuit, the control circuitry configured to control delivery of the one or more electric fields from the at least one electric field generating circuit;
one or more electrodes disposed on a first stimulation lead configured to deliver the electric fields to a site of a cancerous tumor within a patient;
one or more electrodes disposed on a second stimulation lead configured to deliver the electric fields to the site of a cancerous tumor within a patient; and
one or more surface contact members disposed along the first stimulation lead configured to pivot around the first stimulation lead, the one or more surface contact members comprising a window configured to expose a portion of the one or more electrodes disposed on the first stimulation lead, wherein the window has a width less than a diameter of the first stimulation lead;
wherein the first and second stimulation leads are configured to be implanted on or about a duodenum;
wherein the control circuitry causes the electric field generating circuit to generate the one or more electric fields at frequencies selected from a range of between 10 kHz to 1 MHz.
