Ablation technologies proliferate from their many clinical benefits

Surgical management of soft tissues via "ablation" therapies, in which alternative energy types (radiation, electrosurgcal, ultrasound, etc.) are applied to excise, destroy, or otherwise produce a therapeutic effect at the tissue level has undergone a proliferation in development with all of these alternatives vying for caseload in clinical applications as diverse as tumor ablation, arrhythmia [...]

Ablation technologies and their variable penetration of clinical applications

Ablation technologies of different types have in common their ability to produce a therapeutic effect on human tissue.  Beyond this common ground, however, there are stark differences in the modalities.  Consequently, ablation technologies have variable penetration of clinical applications, with use of specific modalities for specific clinical applications driven by factors such as the tissue [...]
