Abstract
Description

The file of this patent contains at least one drawing/photograph executed in color. Copies of this patent with color drawing(s)/photograph(s) will be provided by the Office upon request and payment of the necessary fee.



FIG. 1 is a front view of a display screen with graphical user interface for ablation generator of our new design; and,



FIG. 2 is a front view of a second embodiment thereof.


The broken line showing of display screen and graphical user interface is included for the purpose of illustrating portions of the article and forms no part of the claimed design. Stippling is used in the drawings to indicate a contrast in appearance.


Claims
  • The ornamental design for a display screen with graphical user interface for ablation generator, as shown and described.
