Operating mode of Joule–Thomson microchannel argon cryoprobe for precision cryoablation.

Number: 0012

Author(s) : PUSHKAREV A. V., SAAKYAN N. Y., RYABIKIN S. S.

Summary

Cryoablation is a medical technique of using extreme cold to destroy undesired biological tissues. Modern alternative technologies, such as high intensity focused ultrasound, are more automated and therefore more accurate in terms of efficiency and safety of the performance of prescribed ablation dose. However, using the key features of the modern cryoprobes (automatic control of the cryogen supply and rewarming, minimally invasiveness with the ability of multi-probe operation) it is possible to increase cryoablation accuracy. For this reason, the operation mode modification of microchannel argon Joule–Thomson cryoprobe is considered in this pilot study.
