Irreversible Electroporation for Prostate Cancer [PDF]
Life, 2021 Although it can be lethal in its advanced stage, prostate cancer can be effectively treated when it is localised. Traditionally, radical prostatectomy (RP) or radiotherapy (RT) were used to treat all men with localised prostate cancer; however, this has ...

Conductivity Variation during Irreversible Electroporation [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is an emerging tumour ablation technique, which utilizes non thermoelectric pulse to ablate tumours. Compared with the common tumour treatment methods, e.g., surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, IRE has advantages of

Advances in irreversible electroporation for prostate cancer [PDF]
Discover OncologyIrreversible electroporation is a nonthermal ablation technique that uses a high-voltage electric current to create nanosized pores in the cell membrane of a malignant tumor, thus resulting in cell death. In recent years, an increasing number of clinical

Irreversible Electroporation [PDF]
Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2015 Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a predominantly nonthermal ablative technology that uses high-voltage, low-energy DC current pulses to induce cell death. Thermal ablative technologies such as radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoablation have several applications in oncology but have limitations that have been established. IRE has
