NanoKnife – Irreversible Electroporation (IRE)

NanoKnife – Irreversible Electroporation (IRE)

Your Treatment. Reimagined.

 

Today, localized therapy options are limited in providing clinicians and patients with a customizable and confident treatment. Most options come with substantial trade-offs, dictating your ability to treat effectively. The NanoKnife System reimagines localized therapy through its unique mechanism of action, improving precision1, expanding versatility2, and increasing preservation2,3 giving you the control to tailor treatments with confidence.4,5

Precision Empowered.

The NanoKnife System gives a physician the ability to sculpt and control the ablation zone through a variety of electrode configurations.1

IRE effectively destroys the targeted tissue and gives you precise treatment margins resulting in confident treatment coverage for your procedure.4,5

Preservation Redefined

The procedure spares vital structures by retaining the structural integrity of the targeted tissue.2,3

The delivery of non-thermal energy allows for the preservation of the extra-cellular matrix, facilitating post-ablation, histological and functional tissue regeneration.2,3

Versatility Perfected.

Multiple electrode configurations, coupled with a unique mechanism of action, allow the device to be used in all segments of an organ to optimize treatment delivery.2

Electrodes can be confidently placed near vital structures, maximizing your ability to personalize treatment to your patient’s anatomy. 4,5
