Cryoablation:

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2004
The use of cryoablation in the electrophysiology lab provides some distinct advantages not seen with conventional radiofrequency ablation. Ice mapping allows a functional assessment of a putative ablation site prior to the formation of a permanent lesion.

Cryoablation for Liver Cancer

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2007
Primary cancer of the liver (hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC]) and metastatic cancer to the liver from a distant primary site of origin are very common problems in the United States and the world. The management of these diseases has become progressively complex as the available treatment options have improved and propagated.

Cryoablation in the Musculoskeletal System

Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2008
Pain palliation can be challenging in patients with metastases to the musculoskeletal system, and conventional therapy can be less than optimal for pain management. Recent advances in technology have allowed for the addition of image-guided ablation to the armamentarium for treating musculoskeletal metastases. This article focuses on one such technique,

Cryoablation of Atrial Arrhythmias

Cardiac Electrophysiology Review, 2002
The advent of radiofrequency energy has changed the therapy for supraventricular arrhythmias. Radiofrequency ablation is highly effective and safe. However, the demand for specific ablation lesion characteristic (deep focal lesions or long continuous transmural lesions) has highlighted some of the limitations of radiofrequency as an ablation energy ...

Cryoablation of atrial fibrillation

Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology, 2011
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a significant burden to the public health. AF is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, including an increased risk of heart failure, stroke, cognitive impairment, and diminished quality of life. Catheter ablation is an effective therapy for recurrent, symptomatic, drug-refractory AF.

Percutaneous renal cryoablation

Urology, 2006
Percutaneous renal cryoablation (PRC) has been gaining acceptance as a minimally invasive option for the treatment of patients with solid renal masses. Herein, we reviewed the historical development of PRC, relevant contemporary clinical data, and future directions of percutaneous approaches to renal masses.

How Cool is Cryoablation?

Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2012
A fibrillation remains the most common clinically important cardiacarrhythmia [1]. It is associatedwith significantmorbidity and is a leading cause of stroke. Total mortality and cardiovascular mortality are significantly and independently increased [2–4]. Pharmacological therapy to restore and maintain sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation
