Irreversible Electroporation [PDF]
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

Advances in irreversible electroporation for prostate cancer [PDF]
Irreversible 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 for Prostate Cancer [PDF]
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 ...

Irreversible Electroporation in Medicine
This is a brief introduction to the emerging field of irreversible electroporation in medicine. Certain electrical fields when applied across a cell can have as a sole effect the permeabilization of the cell membrane, presumable through the formation of nanoscale defects in the cell membrane.

Anesthesia management in oncology patients undergoing irreversible electroporation outside the operating room: a case series [PDF]
Background Irreversible electroporation is a novel, non-thermal tumor ablation technique that induces cell death through electrical disruption of cellular membranes while preserving surrounding connective tissue structures.

Cancer Cells Ablation with Irreversible Electroporation
In this study we perform in vitro irreversible electroporation (IRE) experiments with human hepatocarcinoma cells (HepG2) to investigate IRE as a new technique for undesirable tissue ablation. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is the irreversible permeabilization of the cell membrane through the application of microsecond through millisecond ...
