nature of this procedure and the fact that we are not sacrificing normal anatomy have provided me the comfort level to offer patients an option when they are not responding to conservative care whereas before, I felt like I needed to satisfy an arbitrary time period with conservative therapy. ...
We also report, for the first time, a transfer of microsized particles through tunneling nanotubes, which were produced by cancer cells in response to RF therapy. Additionally, we provide evidence that various sub-populations of cancer cells heterogeneously respond to RF treatment. Cellular phenotype...
Tighter, brighter skin at home is possible with one of the best radio frequency devices for skin. Here, experts share their favorites and what you need to know.
Heat transfer in radiofrequency ablation therapy of liver tumors is discussed. Temporal and spatial temperature changes around a single needle and multi-prong ablation probes in monopolar and bipolar configurations based on a two-dimensional finite elements method are presented. The temperature changes ...
In our study 7/7 tumours (100%) >3.5 cm recurred, therefore either more than one ablation procedure or additional therapy can be expected when ablating tumours >3.5 cm. There were only three tumours in the 3–3.5 cm range of which one recurred at 6 months, but the other two were ...
A small enough, unobtrusive, responsive sensor capable of witnessing biological processes at the smallest of scales would support a wide range of biomedical research and therapy applications. Advances in neuroscience and the success of semiconductor electronics in following Moore's Law to below the 30...

(signal propagation along the fat layer78instead of through the bone). Furthermore, the wrist composition is less significantly affected by age. In Ref.79, skin thickness and subcutaneous fat thickness were measured on the back of the hand near the wrist between the second and third metacarpal...
“splints” the airway, thereby maintaining an open passage to the lungs. It is also known to provide a positive pressure therapy in which the pressure of gas delivered to the patient varies with the patient's breathing cycle, or varies with the patient's breathing effort, to increase the ...
Although there are concerns regarding activation of the stimulator device during the procedure, the main concern is permanent loss of therapy secondary to EMI. Postoperative Management Following the procedure,
