Irreversible Electroporation [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars 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

Irreversible electroporation in the treatment of locally advanced pancreas and liver metastases of colorectal carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesContemporary Oncology, 2016
Aim of the study : Irreversible electroporation is a new, non-thermal ablation technique in the treatment of parenchymal organ tumors which uses short high voltage pulses of electricity in order to induce apoptosis of targeted cells.

Irreversible Electroporation for Prostate Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 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 ...

Irreversible electroporation: evolution of a laboratory technique in interventional oncology [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2014
Electroporation involves applying electric field pulses to cells, leading to the alteration or destruction of cell membranes. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) creates permanent defects in cell membranes and induces cell death. By directly targeting IRE

Irreversible Electroporation in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest of the gastrointestinal tract with 5-year survival rates of less than 5%. Given common asymptomatic early disease course, most patients (50%) present with an already metastatic disease, while only 20% can undergo potentially curative resection.

Uncertainty Quantification in Irreversible Electroporation Simulations

open access: yesBioengineering, 2017
One recent area of cancer research is irreversible electroporation (IRE). Irreversible electroporation is a minimally invasive procedure where needle electrodes are inserted into the body to ablate tumor cells with electricity.

Niche Applications of Irreversible Electroporation

open access: yesTechniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2015
Irreversible electroporation (IRE) induces cell death by exposing it to high-voltage, low-energy DC current pulses. The mechanism of cell death and healing is a departure from the other existing technologies such as radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoablation.

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

open access: yesRadiology 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 ...
