Advantages of Cool-tip™ RF Ablation System

12-minute treatment cycle

Fast, effective ablation reduces procedure time and minimizes facility expense.

Minimized Charring

The Cool-tip™ electrode minimizes tissue carbonization. Cooler proximal tissue permits maximum energy deposition to the target tissue.

Larger, Controlled Ablation Zone

The internally cooled electrode and feedback algorithm work together to simultaneously provide energy delivery that responds to tissue changes. The system's cooled electrode reduces increases in tissue impedance to improve energy delivery.
