Cryoablation of Breast Cancer – IO Learning Technology Spotlight

This article outlines breast cancer cryoablation treatment, describes proper patient selection and techniques, and presents 2 cases that illustrate mammographic findings post treatment with cryoablation as part of the ICE3 clinical trial.
Cryoablation Without Excision for Early-Stage Breast Cancer; ICE3 Trial Update on Ipsilateral Breast Tumor Recurrence (ASBRS)

Scientific Oral Presentation from ASBrS 2021. Of 194 eligible patients were treated with cryoablation, at a mean of 34.83 months (about 3 years) following treatment with the ProSense™ Cryoablation System, only 2.06% (4 patients) experienced cancer recurrence.
The cryoablation of lung tissue using liquid nitrogen in gel and in the ex vivo pig lung

This study was aimed at evaluating the efficiency of cryoablation using liquid nitrogen in lung tissue by measuring the size and temperature distribution of the frozen area (ice ball) in gel and in the ex vivo pig lungs.
Cryoablation for T1N0M0 non-small cell lung cancer using liquid nitrogen

This study focused on evaluating local control and complications of cryoablation for T1N0M0 non-small cell lung cancer using liquid nitrogen.
