Tumor Ablation with Irreversible Electroporation
We report the first successful use of irreversible electroporation for the minimally invasive treatment of aggressive cutaneous tumors implanted in mice. Irreversible electroporation is a newly developed non-thermal tissue ablation technique in which certain short duration electrical fields are used to permanently permeabilize the cell membrane, presumably through the formation of nanoscale def...

متن کاملTissue heating during tumor ablation with irreversible electroporation
Exposing biological cells to sufficiently strong external electric fields causes electroporation of cell membranes, i.e. occurrence of transient or permanent permeable pathways between the interior and exterior of the cell. Electroporation can be used to introduce various molecules into cells (reversible electroporation) or to kill cells (irreversible electroporation), which can in turn be used...
متن کاملAblation of perivascular hepatic malignant tumors with irreversible electroporation.
BACKGROUND Ablation is increasingly used to treat primary and secondary liver cancer. Ablation near portal pedicles and hepatic veins is challenging. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a new ablation technique that does not rely on heat and, in animals, appears to be safe and effective when applied near hepatic veins and portal pedicles. This study evaluated the safety and short-term outcome...
متن کاملHistorical review of irreversible electroporation in medicine
The objective of this chapter is to present a historical review of the field of irreversible electroporation (IRE) in the context of its medical applications. Although relevant scientific observations were made since the 18 th century, the electroporation phenomenon was not identified as an increase of membrane permeability until mid 20 th century. After that, multiple applications of reversibl...
