Abstract
A control device for an ablation treatment tool includes: a target-value storage unit that stores a target value for the total treatment area; an energy-source output unit that outputs, to the ablation treatment tool, an energy source for performing ablation treatment; an area calculation unit that calculates the total treatment area of the ileal mucosa on which the ablation treatment has been performed; and a control unit that controls termination of the ablation treatment performed by the ablation treatment tool. The control unit notifies an operator of the termination of the ablation treatment or stops the output of the energy source from the energy-source output unit when the calculated total treatment area of the ileal mucosa becomes equal to or greater than the target value.
