Indications for Use 

The NT1100 is intended for use to create lesions in neural tissue. The NT1100 is to be used with 
separetly approved lesion/temperature probes such as NeuroTherm radiofrequency probes, Smith & 
Nephew Spinecath and Acutherm catheters, and Radionics DiskTrode radiofrequency probes.
