Claim 15:
16. A method of irreversible electroporating a target tissue, the method comprising:
electrically coupling a plurality of electrodes to a generator;
disposing the plurality of electrodes near the target tissue; and
activating the generator to deliver electrical pulses to the target tissue via the plurality of electrodes, wherein:
the electrical pulses are delivered in a cycled pulse sequence such that a total number of electrical pulses delivered between the plurality of electrodes is divided into subsets of electrical pulses, and the plurality of electrodes are activated in a sequential order to deliver the subsets of electrical pulses to define a pulse cycle, and
the pulse cycle is repeated until the total number of desired pulses are delivered,
wherein the plurality of electrodes comprises two or more electrodes, each subset of electrical pulses comprises at least 10 electrical pulses, and a delay of between 5 seconds to 20 minutes is applied between each pulse cycle.
