The use of thermal energy-based systems to treat uterine fibroids has resulted in a plethora of devices that are less invasive and potentially as effective in reducing symptoms as traditional options such as myomectomy. Most thermal ablation devices involve hyperthermia (heating of tissue), which entails the conversion of an external electromagnetic or ultrasound waves into intracellular mechan...
Introduction: Thermal ablation by microwave (MWA) has proven efficacy in treatment of primary and metastatic cancers. Soft tissue tumors could be ablated completely using MWA. However, bony tissue metastasis particularly spinal vertebral metastasis ablation has not reported yet. Case presentation: A 50 year old male patient with primary diagnosed colon cancer undergone surgical resection of ...
Percutaneous image-guided ablation is performed throughout many areas of the body for various pathologies including hepatic malignancies. Heat and cold-based ablative technologies are effective and well-tolerated with an acceptable safety profile. However, ablative therapies may be technically more challenging and cause collateral thermal injury if the targeted lesion is adjacent to critical or...
Background Image-guided thermal ablation can be used for the treatment of medically inoperable primary and metastatic lung cancer. These techniques are based on the heating up or freezing (cryoablation) of a volume of tissue around a percutaneous applicator that induces necrosis of the tumor. Method The English-language literature concerning thermal ablation of the lung was reviewed. Radiofrequ...
A one–dimensional, transient and thermal degradation model for predicting responses of composite materials when are exposed to the fire is presented. The presented model simulates ablation of composites with different layers of materials and considers material properties as functions of temperature. The reactions are modeled by using Arrhenius-type parameters and density-temperature diagram...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Previous investigations have reported evidence of wavelength dependence on cortical bone ablation. This study used mid-infrared laser wavelengths generated by a free electron laser (FEL) and mass removal measurements to further examine the ablation efficiency of a wavelength (2.79 microm) not previously reported and three wavelengths (2.9, 6.1, and 6.45 microm) previous...
Dermal tissue ablation and layer-separation with minimal thermal damage to the surrounding tissue via an ultra-short pulsed (USP) laser has been investigated. At first, a parametric study for wet tissue surface line ablation was investigated. The line features were measured by both microscope and scanning electron microscopy. The dermis ablation threshold and the incubation factor were determin...
Laser-ablation experiments on solid (T = 300 K) and liquid (T = 600 K) indium are reported. The ablation was performed under high vacuum conditions with UV laser pulses at 248 nm and pulse durations of 15 ns and 0.5 ps. The ablated neutral indium atoms were resonantly ionized with a second laser pulse 28 mm above the sample surface and detected in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The ablatio...
OBJECTIVE Artifacts from gas bubble formation during radio frequency ablation along with the poor intrinsic contrast between normal and treated regions (zone of necrosis) are considerable problems for the visualization of the necrotic region on conventional sonography. Sonographic elastography is very effective for visualizing the zone of necrosis, but it uses the same echo signals to estimate ...
INTRODUCTION Luminal esophageal temperature (LET) monitoring is commonly employed during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) to detect high esophageal temperatures during radiofrequency (RF) delivery along the posterior wall of the left atrium. However, it has been recently suggested that in some cases the esophageal probe itself may serve as an RF "antenna" and promote esophageal the...
