Cryoplasty
Pain treatment using cooling
What is This Treatment?
Cryoplasty (cryoablation) is a treatment method that stops pain-transmitting nerve fibers by using extreme cold (-60°C to -80°C). It provides pain control in spinal pain and bone metastases.
Benefits
- Effective pain control
- Tissue-preserving method
- Less nerve damage compared to RF
- Repeatable treatment
Treatment Process
Under CT or fluoroscopy guidance, a cryoprobe is placed at the target area. Rapid cooling using argon gas freezes the target nerve or tissue. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia.
