The Celon method (bipolar radiofrequency induced thermotherapy) is a procedure for the endovenous treatment of insufficient saphenous veins, in particular, the great saphenous vein. During this procedure veins are gently heated to temperature of 60° to 85°C using an ultra-thin RFITT...

The Cool-tip RF Ablation System E Series is Covidien's latest (as at March 2013) addition to the Cool-tip range. The device  uses an electrode with a closed circuit of cooled saline to cool the electrode tip and prevent charring. The system is impedance controlled and CE marked....

  This product is distributed in the UK by BVM Medical , for supply outside the UK please consult the manufacturer.   Real Time Navigation Composed of an electromagnetic transmitter and receiver, the locating device makes it possible to display the needle’s anticipated...

An interesting device that can be switched between power modulation or temperature modulation modes. This presumably varies between the different types of ablation needle. The power modulation mode likely relies on impedence feedback such as in the cooltip device from Medtronic ad RF 3000...

The device was on show at CIRCE 2016, in Barcelona. Our Editor-in-Chief, Dr Phil Haslam was there. He said, "This is an unusual thermal ablation system with one device applying either RF or microwave power for ablation. The advantage is you would have one system to treat larger hepatic...
