nsPFA™

Soft Tissue Nodule Ablation Procedure

Cell-Targeting Technology to Clear Unwanted Soft Tissue Nodules.

Benefits of the nsPFA™ Ablation Procedure

Cell-Targeting: Procedure targets the cells of your benign soft tissue nodule, sparing nearby healthy tissue and nearby critical structures.
Quick and Efficient: Most patients can return to daily activities with little to no downtime and see results in only a few weeks.
nsPFA™
Minimal Discomfort: Minimally invasive procedure with less pain and discomfort compared to traditional methods such as surgery.
Minimally Invasive: nsPFA™ technology minimizes scarring and preserves the appearance of the procedure area with only a small needle puncture through the skin.

How Does nsPFA™ Technology Work?

...

Nonthermal Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation (nsPFA™) technology delivers nanosecond (billionth of a second) duration pulses of electrical energy

...

High speed nanosecond energy pulses penetrate the cell membrane and disrupt internal cellular function, stimulating natural cellular removal

...

Unlike thermal (heat/cold) modalities, nsPFA™ pulses directly affects cellular structures while preserving noncellular tissue including skin, vessels, and nerves

...

Targeted

nsPFA™ technology only affects cellular soft tissue, like nodules, increasing safety around other critical structures like nerves, vessels, and skin.

...

Fast

Delivers quick results with majority of ablation effect occurring within first two weeks through natural removal of ablated cells.

...

Natural Healing

nsPFA™ technology stimulates a rapid, natural process for clearing unwanted cellular tissue without the need for open surgery and without causing immediate necrosis caused by thermal ablation.

What to Expect During Your Procedure

  • 1. Consultation: You will meet with your doctor to discuss if the nsPFA™ procedure is right for you.
  • 2. Preparation: The area around your tumor will be prepared and local anesthesia may be administered to numb the area.
  • 3. Procedure: Using the nsPFA™ system, your doctor will apply nsPFA™ energy to the soft tissue nodule with a minimally invasive technique, guided by ultrasound, which usually takes only a few minutes.
  • 4. Post Procedure: You can go home immediately after the procedure and resume most activities.

After Your Procedure

After a nsPFA™ ablation procedure, most patients experience minimal side effects, such as temporary redness or swelling. These typically resolve quickly, enabling you to resume your daily activities without a lengthy or uncomfortable recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. The nsPFA™ ablation procedure is minimally invasive and does not involve surgical incisions, leading to a low risk of post-procedure pain or scarring. Local anesthesia will be used to reduce any discomfort to the procedure area.

The actual procedure with the nsPFA system can take as little as a few minutes. However, the total visit time may vary depending on the size and location of the soft tissue nodule. Your doctor will provide you with a more accurate timeline based on your specific condition.

Recovery times are generally short, typically within a few days. You may experience some redness or swelling at the procedure site, which typically resolves within a few days. Most patients can resume their normal activities almost immediately after the procedure.

The timing and results can vary depending on the type and size of the soft tissue nodule. Some patients notice improvements soon after the procedure as the body begins to naturally clear the affected cells. Complete results are typically observed in a few weeks once the healing process has concluded. Your doctor will provide you with more specific information regarding the expected timeline for your individual case.
