3.4.2
System pre-tests
As the system uploads, several internal built-in tests are performed automatically in
order to verify that the system is safe for use. Additional specific tests will be made upon
visual inspection by the user, following instructions on the graphic interface. Each
cryoprobe must be tested before use.
3.4.3
Cryoablation procedure
The cryoablation procedure can only be performed after the cryoprobe has been inserted
in the target tissue. It can be activated by
Manual mode
(controlled by the user) or by
Automatic mode
(pre-programmed and monitored by the computer). During the entire
procedure, the system continues its internal check. In case of system error, the user will
be instructed as to the appropriate solution.
3.4.4
EXTRACTION step
EXTRACTION is a process activated automatically by the system at the end of every
automatic protocol, or manually by the user at any time in the process. During this
process, the cryoprobe tip is heated by warmed Nitrogen gas, enabling fast and safe
removal of the cryoprobe.
