The device is used to destroy unwanted tissue by application of extreme cold to the selected site. LN, is forced through the cryoprobes under pressure. The cryoprobe, having been placed in the appropriate position through the use of ultrasound or another imaging device, then becomes cold and freezes the unwanted tissue. The procedure may be monitored in real-time through the use of imaging modes such as ultrasound. Once the freezing is completed (approximately 20 minutes) the probe will be heated using warm nitrogen gas in order to facilitate thawing and removal of the cryoprobe from the frozen tissue. The cryosurgical procedure is available when surgical resection is not possible and may also provide an alternative to typical resection in certain cases.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
