Parylene is a conformal coating widely used in the medical device and microelectronics industries. It has many highly desirable characteristics: chemical resistance, biocompatibility, thermal ...

Multiple-electrode radiofrequency ablation is a safe and effective way of treating patients with liver cancer that can be completed in less time than current ablation techniques, according to a recent ...

LISBON — A lot of functionality has been packed into one balloon catheter for treating atrial fibrillation (AF). The multielectrode, radiofrequency (RF) balloon catheter with integrated mapping and ...

First to market FDA-cleared thin-film, sEEG-guided RF system capable of both recording electrical activity and ablating nervous tissue with the added benefit of temperature control “We are excited to ...

Laser ablation is one of the best alternatives to invasive procedures like craniotomies (temporarily removing a piece of the skull to access the brain during surgery). Laser ablation is extremely ...

The challenges of powering skin-attached biosensors. Using a laser-ablated micro-supercapacitor to provide a solution. The performance yielded by the ablated supercapacitor. Wearable medical patches ...

Laser ablation is a process that uses high-energy laser pulses to precisely remove or vaporize materials from a solid surface. When the laser beam focuses on the target material, it absorbs the laser ...

Endovenous ablation is a nonsurgical procedure that uses radiofrequency waves or a laser to seal varicose veins. The method is minimally invasive and typically has a shorter recovery time and lower ...

When laser energy is deposited in a target, numerous complex processes take place too rapidly to observe visually. To study and adapt such processes, researchers often use computer modeling. However, ...
