Claim Text:
1. A method of delivering ultrasound energy, the method comprising: a) emitting an ultrasound energy from an ultrasound transducer, the ultrasound energy initially emitted at a predetermined frequency; b) during the emitting the ultrasound energy of step a), monitoring a current temperature of the ultrasound transducer; c) determining that the current temperature of the ultrasound transducer has changed outside a predetermined temperature range; d) in response to the determining of step c), correcting a frequency of the ultrasound energy to the predetermined frequency; e) during the emitting the ultrasound energy of step a), monitoring a current power level of the ultrasound energy; f) determining that the current power level of the ultrasound energy has deviated from a predetermined power level; and g) in response to the determining of step f), correcting the frequency of the ultrasound energy to the predetermined frequency.
