How does the Visica Treatment System work?
The Visica System freezes and destroys targeted tissue using cryoablation technology, or extreme cold, through a small incision, without requiring stitches or general anesthesia. This procedure is performed in a physician’s office and lasts 20-30 minutes. Cryoablation has been shown to be highly useful in destroying common cancers (such as prostate) in long-term studies. In addition, cryoablation is visualized using real-time ultrasound, which helps to provide a controlled and targeted procedure.
