Irreversible electroporation for unresectable liver malignancies

Academia Oncology
Background: Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a non-thermal ablation technique used for liver tumors that are unresectable due to their proximity to critical structures. This study evaluates outcomes for patients treated with IRE. Methods:

Histopathological Outcomes after Irreversible Electroporation for Prostate Cancer: Results of an Ablate and Resect Study

, 2016
Irreversible electroporation is a tissue ablation modality that uses high voltage electric energy to induce an increase in cell membrane permeability. This causes destabilization of the existing cellular transmembrane potential leading to cell death, due

Careful treatment planning enables safe ablation of liver tumors adjacent to major blood vessels by percutaneous irreversible electroporation (IRE)

Radiology and Oncology, 2015
Background. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a tissue ablation method, which relies on the phenomenon of electroporation. When cells are exposed to a sufficiently electric field, the plasma membrane is disrupted and cells undergo an apoptotic or ...
