Multiple cryoprobe placement strategy for a single freeze cryosurgery planning
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2022 The present work is concerned with the development of a numerical methodology for the placement of cryoprobes inside three-dimensional irregular-shaped tumors. A set of discrete regions enclosed by lethal temperature are superposed using the algorithm to

A refined diagnostic approach for interstitial lung disease: efficient and safe transbronchial cryobiopsy using a 1.1-mm cryoprobe [PDF]
Frontiers in MedicineBackgroundTransbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to surgical biopsy for diagnosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). However, data on the performance of thinner cryoprobes remains limited.

Pushing the sensitivity boundaries of X-band EPR cryoprobe using a fast microwave switch
Journal of Magnetic Resonance OpenWe present a new design of an X-band EPR cryoprobe based on a fast microwave switch and a cryogenic low-noise microwave amplifier that are placed close to the sample in the same cryostat.

Optimizing tissue sampling during medical pleuroscopy for diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion due to lung cancer [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCryobiopsy has emerged in recent years as a tool of growing interest in the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We first conducted the study with the primary objective to compare the quality of cryobiopsies versus conventional forceps ...

Tumor Microscopically-absent On Resection Specimen After Bronchoscopic Cryobiopsy: TuMORS-ABC [PDF]
Respiratory Medicine Case ReportsThe advent of shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (SSRAB) and its combination with integrated mobile cone beam CT (mCBCT) have made it possible for chest clinicians to biopsy smaller lung nodules than was previously possible. The 1.1 mm cryoprobe

Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial cryobiopsy through a working channel potentially improving safety and efficacy [PDF]
Respiratory Medicine Case ReportsEndobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB) is a novel method for the biopsy of hilar and mediastinal lesions. Conventional cryobiopsy requires simultaneous removal of the cryoprobe and EBUS scope from the airway, resulting in
