Catheter Cryoablation: Biophysics and Clinical Applications
Key Points The biophysics and mechanisms of cryothermal injury comprise the following general phases: freeze/thaw, hemorrhage and inflammation, replacement fibrosis, and apoptosis. Cryoablation lesion size is determined by refrigerant flow rate, electrode size, electrode pressure, electrode orientation, duration of energy…
