Evaluation of a numerical simulation for cryoablation – comparison with bench data, clinical kidney and lung cases

Purpose The accuracy of a numerical simulation of cryoablation ice balls was evaluated in gel phantom data as well as clinical kidney and lung cases. Materials and methods To evaluate the accuracy, 64 experimental single-needle cryoablations and 12 multi-needle cryoablations in gel phantoms were re-...
