Tissue ablation with irreversible electroporation
Rafael V. Davalos,Boris Rubinsky +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for the ablation of undesirable tissue such as cells of a cancerous or non-cancerous tumor is disclosed, which involves the placement of electrodes into or near the vicinity of the undesirable tissue through the application of electrical pulses causing irreversible electroporation of the cells throughout the entire area of the desired tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Irreversible electroporation: a new ablation modality--clinical implications.
TL;DR: There appears to be complete ablation to the margin of blood vessels without compromising the functionality of the blood vessels, which suggests that IRE is a promising method for treatment of tumors near blood vessels (a significant challenge with current ablation methods).
Journal ArticleDOI
In vivo results of a new focal tissue ablation technique: irreversible electroporation
TL;DR: Results of in vivo experiments that confirm the feasibility of a new minimally invasive method for tissue ablation, irreversible electroporation (IRE), and demonstrates that IRE can become an effective method for nonthermal tissueAblation requiring no drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tumor Ablation with Irreversible Electroporation
Bassim Al-Sakere,Franck M. Andre,Claire Bernat,Elisabeth Connault,Paule Opolon,Rafael V. Davalos,Boris Rubinsky,Boris Rubinsky,Lluis M. Mir +8 more
TL;DR: The first successful use of irreversible electroporation for the minimally invasive treatment of aggressive cutaneous tumors implanted in mice was reported, and induced complete regression in 12 out of 13 treated tumors, in the absence of tissue heating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Irreversible electroporation in medicine.
Boris Rubinsky,Boris Rubinsky +1 more
TL;DR: This is a brief introduction to the emerging field of irreversible electroporation in medicine, where certain electrical fields when applied across a cell can have as a sole effect the permeabilization of the cell membrane, presumable through the formation of nanoscale defects in the cell membranes.
