Bimodal Electric Tissue Ablation (BETA)

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a technique used to heat and destroy tissue, and is used to treat tumours. A new technique, Bimodal Electric Tissue Ablation (BETA) simultaneously applies two kinds of electrical energy (alternating current AC and direct current DC) into tissue. In the process the tissue is ablated (destroyed). This BETA technique has been demonstrated to increase the diameter of ablation zones in porcine livers relative to using RFA alone.
