5.6.8. GastroCut Loop slow
This mode is used in gastroenterology. Polypectomy snares are used for cutting
and coagulation. ARC control generates the cutting effect with simultaneously
minimized output power. This mode consists of a series of cutting current pulses
followed by a coagulation phase. With a relatively slow pulse rate of 1 cutting pulse
per second, this mode is suitable for especially cautious work.
Application areas
Polyp removal using polypectomy snares and flexible endoscopy
Suitable instruments
Polypectomy snares
