sharp or blunt tips.
Choose the cryoprobe based on iceball size you want to obtain. For example:

engulfment
with
appropriate
imaging
modality.
Marks on cryoprobe shaft aid in determining the depth of probe insertion. The first mark (closest to
the tip) is thicker and represents the minimum insertion depth of the cryoprobe for a percutaneous
procedure. Before starting the freezing procedure, the user must verify that this mark is fully
inserted into the skin.
7.2
The Foot pedal (Not available in some regions, e.g. China)
The Foot pedal (Not available in some regions, e.g. China) is a pneumatic accessory external to the
main chassis and is not essential for normal functioning of the system. It serves as an alternative to
the Action button on the cryohandle.
To use the Foot pedal (Not available in some regions, e.g. China), connect it to the console by
plugging its cable into the footswitch connector located on the back panel. The foot pedal action is
equal to the action of the
BLUE
button.
7.3
The temperature sensor
The temperature sensor is a single-use external accessory that can be connected to the main chassis
if the user chooses to measure target tissue temperature during cryoablation.
To use the temperature sensor, connect it to the panel connector on the right upper corner of the
chassis according to instructions detailed in section 3.3.7 – Temperature sensor.
