A system for delivering a substance into a body at a treatment site that
includes an alternating current source and a plurality of electrodes.
Circuitry is connected between the alternating current source and the
electrodes for supplying current to the electrodes when the electrodes
are in electrical contact with said body so that a uni-directional
current flow for delivering the substance into the body is maintained at
the treatment site and a bi-directional current flow is maintained
throughout the body. At least one of the electrodes is divided into
sub-electrodes to, for example, reduce hazards associated with current
concentration. These and other systems and methods are adaptable for
large treatment areas and/or use a convenient and low-cost arrangement of
electronics.
