Experimental and Analytical Studies on Contact Irreversible Electroporation for Superficial Tumor Treatment

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is attracting much attention as a less-invasive therapy to ablate abnormal tissues. With a pair of electrodes inserted into the tissue, the IRE perforates the targeted cells non-thermally by a train of intensive electric pulses that exceeds a certain threshold. Sin...
