Electrochemotherapy in Veterinary Oncology
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2008 Electropermeabilization is a method that uses electric field pulses to induce an electrically mediated reorganization of the plasma membrane of cells. Electrochemotherapy combines local or systemic administration of chemotherapeutic drugs such as bleomycin or cisplatin that have poor membrane permeability with electropermeabilization by direct ...

Tumor size and effectiveness of electrochemotherapy [PDF]
Radiology and Oncology, 2013 Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is an effective and safe method for local treatment of tumors. However, relatively large variability in effectiveness of ECT has been observed, which likely results from different treatment conditions and tumor characteristics.
