Englisch 10 Englisch 11 GB HEBU HFiT®-T is simple and superior – High Frequency Induced Thermo Therapy (HFiT®-T) Developed and clinically tested in cooperation with German University Clinics, the HFiT® is a saline soak based further development of the RFA method. Gastroenterologists, radiologists, liver surgeons and oncologists all over the world trust this demonstrably efficient treatment option. Due to the use of saline solution heat accumulation and exsiccation of the tissue are avoided furthermore the electrical conduction and the temperature around the tip of the needle electrode are stabilized. A secure and low complication rate method for inoperable tumor diseases Heat plus saline solution – a patented formula for success Relying on disclosures by the Robert-Koch-Institute, Berlin, annually more than 5.000 people in Germany are developing liver cancer. Only a few patients can be healed by a surgical intervention such as liver transplantation or liver resection. Other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy are not only complex but also are accompanied by side effects. Here out further therapeutic methods for inoperable liver cancer were developed to damage the tumor locally and conserve the surrounding tissue withal. One of the most successful local ablative therapy methods is the Radio Frequency Thermal Ablation, so called RFA. Out of the dedicated research and development in this field a lot of valuable contributions were gained to improve the treatment of liver cancer patients. One considerable example represents the High Frequency Thermo Ablation also called HFiT®. This kind of treatment serves a minimally-invasive, secure, gentle and low-risk method for the patient to treat inoperable cancer, especially liver cancer. The success of this treatment depends not only on the duration of the heat exposure but also on the electrical conductivity of the targeted tissue. To improve conductivity, it needs to be ensured that saline solution is used for perfusion. Thus a complete ablation of the tumor cell ensues by means of the HF-Energy. e-enhanced” RFA method. ve treatment option. mperature at the infusion set interface sensor cable incision temperature sensor control of needle navigation and thermal RF interaction through imaging techniques (US, CT, MRT) neutral electrode perfused HiTT needle RF cable Elektrotom HFiT® biotissue coagulation zone 100 °C at electrode tip computer-controlled injection pump Simple Handling – From needle ablation trough to HEBU HFiT®-T system application. HEBU HFiT®-T is as flexible as the demands placed. The user is provided with a variety of needles with diverse shaft and active lengths. The selection of the correct needle depends on the medical diagnosis, brought out of imaging methods. HEBU HFiT®-T needles provide the following specific advantages: Fenestrated needle with a sharp trocar tip, similar to a biopsy needle Insulated needle shaft with ring markings Rigid electrode tip without additional moving parts HEBU HFiT®-T – a superior concept During the redesign of the device, particular the focus was placed on a simple and safe handling of the device. The clearly arranged color-touch-screen enables the user to dedicate oneself with all attention to the patient. All these properties lead to a simple navigation of the needle. Risks of displacement are minimized and difficulties during the pull out of the needle out of the targeted tissue immediately after thermal ablation are eliminated. cable connector infusion tube connector insulated needle shaft active electrode with waterpockets
