Emprint™ SX Ablation Platform with Thermosphere™ Technology
Tumor targeting and antenna placement using ultrasound is challenging. Failure to accurately place a microwave ablation antenna increases the risk of incomplete ablation and local recurrence. To master antenna placement requires time, practice, and a comprehensive understanding of anatomical landmarks.

Recognizing this challenge, we sought to develop a unique procedural solution to simplify ablation procedures.

The Emprint™ SX ablation platform with Thermosphere™ technology is a cutting-edge, integrated surgical navigation and ablation platform that reduces procedural complexity and improves the targeting accuracy of soft tissue ablation.

Navigation software improves successful antenna placement versus standard ultrasound guidance upon first attempt.3
Advanced 3-D tracking shows the position of the Emprint™ SX ablation antenna and ultrasound transducer relative to the surgeon’s perspective in real-time.2
Projected antenna path allows trajectory planning prior to antenna placement.1,3,
3-D visualization of the predicted ablation zone helps ensure complete coverage of the target.3,4
Thermosphere™ technology creates predictable spherical ablation zones.4
Intuitive interface with a step-by-step guided setup and context-sensitive troubleshooting, makes the system easy to use.1

Emprint™ Ablation System with Thermosphere™ Technology
When other treatments like resection, embolization and chemotherapy are not an option for your patient or you are looking for combined treatments, ablation provides a minimally invasive solution. The problem is — given the limitations of most ablation technologies — many clinicians do not have confidence that they’ve ablated the entire targeted lesion. And failure to fully ablate could increase the chances of recurrence.

So we partnered with clinicians to develop a truly predictable ablation technology.

It’s called Thermosphere™ technology, and it provides clinicians with three kinds of spatial energy control — thermal, field and wavelength. This maintains a predictable, spherical ablation zone throughout a procedure, and brings new confidence to the ablation of liver tumors.

Emprint™ ablation system can be used for ablation in other soft tissue within the body.

Cardioblate 68000
Delivering precise, irrigated RF energy based on tissue requirements is key to achieving transmurality and consistent conduction block. The lightweight, portable Cardioblate® 68000 generator is the foundation on which the Medtronic Cardioblate System is built.

The Cardioblate 68000 generator is easy to set up and use, while its advanced dose-response algorithm ensures transmural lesions that consistently result in conduction block.

Dose-response algorithm customizes energy delivery based on tissue impedance to achieve reliable, reproducible transmurality
Audible tones and touch screen messages notify user of ablation status, transmurality, and other critical information
Touch screen operation for adjusting ablation parameters
Color LCD screen folds into case for storage and flips open on hinge for different viewing angles
Troubleshooting steps available via touch screen messages
