TEMPERATURE AND COOLING RATE VARIATIONS DURING CRYOSURGICAL PROBE TESTING.

Author(s) : AUGUSTYNOWICZ S. D., GAGE A. A.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

EXPERIMENTS ARE REPORTED USING A PROBE HAVING A FLAT CIRCULAR SURFACE 25 MM DIAMETER WHICH CAN BE COOLED DOWN TO 113 K (-160 DEG C). THE PROBE IS USED IN VITRO FOR COOLING WATER, GELATIN SOLUTIONS, BEEF AND LIVER TISSUE AND FOR IN VIVO TESTS WITH SKIN/MUSCLE OF DOGS. THESE MEASUREMENTS SHOW THAT HEAT CONDUCTION IS MORE RAPID PERPENDICULAR TO THE COOLING SURFACE. EXPERIMENTS WERE CARRIED OUT USING REPETITIVE FREEZE/THAW CYCLES.
