Sentence examples for ablation electrode from inspiring English sources

Various radiofrequency (RF) ablation electrode designs have been developed to increase ablation volume.

b AP fluoroscopy image shows the radiofrequency ablation electrode inserted coaxially within the lesion.

The FEM was used to solve Penne's bioheat transport equation [24], which consists of two partial differential equations: Fig. 1 Model of actively cooled RF ablation electrode with tetrahedral mesh applied for FEM-based sofuthen of the Penne's bioheat transport equation (left).

Conventional ablation electrodes, which are powered with radio frequency energy (RFE) provide only a poor control of destroyed tissue (lesion) depth and direction due to inhomogeneous thermal and electrical tissue properties.

Currently practiced IRE settings for tumour ablation are electrode spacing of 15 mm, electrode tip exposure of 15 mm, 90 pulses of 90 μs (synchronised with ECG) and a pulse intensity of 1500 V/cm.

For ablation, hooked electrodes (LeVeen needle electrodes, Radiotherapeutics, Mountain View, CA) with an RTC 2000 generator (Boston Scientific Co, Tokyo, Japan), or cooled electrodes (Radionics, Burlington, MA) with a radiofrequency generator (Radionics) were used.

For an extended ablation with >4 electrodes, 2 electrodes will be repositioned followed by a second IRE course including the 4 electrodes in place.

Repeated CT fluoroscopy is required to monitor the ablation and the electrode position.

Figure 5 shows burned tissue after insertion and ablation by both electrode wings.

Multiple electrode ablation based on 3 cooled monopolar electrodes and a rapid-switching multi-electrode control allows physicians to simultaneously treat multiple tumours.

For RF ablation, as the electrode is fixed with respect to the imaged tissue, the susceptibility field map remains unchanged throughout the experiment and therefore susceptibility map corrections are not needed.
