This experimental and clinical study compared two umbrella-shaped expandable radiofrequency ablation electrodes (SuperSlim vs CoAccess) across different ablation algorithms. In ex vivo bovine liver, CoAccess generally produced larger ablation areas and required longer ablation times than SuperSlim, with no…

This animal study evaluated two multiprobe radiofrequency ablation device approaches in pigs, including an impedance-based algorithm and clustered/combination probes with and without a switcher controller. The Pringle maneuver was associated with larger ablation volumes and shorter ablation times in one experiment,…
