Single exponential decay waveform; a synergistic combination of electroporation and electrolysis (E2) for tissue ablation [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Background Electrolytic ablation and electroporation based ablation are minimally invasive, non-thermal surgical technologies that employ electrical currents and electric fields to ablate undesirable cells in a volume of tissue. In this study, we explore

Advances in irreversible electroporation for prostate cancer [PDF]

Discover Oncology
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

Stereotactic two-needle irreversible electroporation of liver tumors near critical structures: a proof-of-concept study [PDF]

European Radiology Experimental
Objective Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a non-thermal ablation technique suitable for tumors near critical structures, but its widespread use is limited by technical complexity and the need for multiple electrodes.

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

Irreversible Electroporation for Prostate Cancer

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 ...

Transchondral access for irreversible electroporation of hepatocellular carcinoma

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
Ablative treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma is standard of care in selected settings and is endorsed by international societal guidelines. Centrally located hepatocellular carcinoma are difficult to treat due to their proximity to vasculature and ...
