A vessel ablation system includes apparatus and a process in which during a first period t1 energy is applied at a low power of 3-5 Watts, and determines if the impedance is between 80-125 Ω. Subsequent to this, in a period t2, power is ramped up linearly from 0 to 40 Watts over a 10 second period. Once the desired optimum power output is reached, the system holds power level for a further period (t3) of around 20 seconds. The system then enters an after burn stage in which power is reduced to around 10 Watts for a given period t4. Throughout periods t2 and t3, the control unit monitors impedance and if at any stage this exceeds 150 Ω, step t2 or t3 is curtailed and the after burn step is immediately implemented. The system provides for partial retraction of the electrode (16) by around 5 millimetres before the sequence is repeated.
