About

    Cryoablation is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat various types of cancer and other conditions by freezing and destroying abnormal tissues. This technique involves inserting a probe into the targeted area, which then delivers extreme cold temperatures to freeze and destroy the abnormal tissue. Cryoablation is often used for treating tumors in the liver, kidney, prostate, and other organs, as well as for certain cardiac arrhythmias. It is considered a relatively safe and effective alternative to traditional surgery or radiation therapy for certain patients.
