The Influence of Irreversible Electroporation Parameters on the Size of the Ablation Zone and Thermal Effects: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: The aim of this study was to review the effect of irreversible electroporation parameter settings on the size of the ablation zone and the occurrence of thermal effects. This insight would help to optimize treatment protocols and effectively ablate a tumor while controlling the occurrence of thermal effects. Methods: Various individual studies report the influence of variation in electroporation parameters on the ablation zone size or occurrence of thermal effects. However, no connections have yet been established between these studies. With the aim of closing the gap in the understanding of and personalizing irreversible electroporation parameter settings, a systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Me
