Dr. Avivit Shoham, Deputy Director of the Vascular and Interventional Radiology Unit at Beilinson Rabin Medical Center, presented a session on Cryotherapy of Renal Malignancies in Israel, which included data previously shared in December 2022 at the Urological Association Conference in Eilat, Israel.\n\n \n \nProfessor Sarel Halachmi, the Principal Investigator of the ICESECRET clinical trial, said, \"Cryoablation is a safe and effective, minimally invasive ablative approach for treating renal cell carcinoma presenting with tumors ≤3 centimeters, resulting in shorter hospitalization than nephrectomy and minor side effects on the renal function and on hemoglobin levels. Further studies are needed to confirm cryoablation as a viable option to treat kidney lesions.\"\nIceCure's CEO Eyal Shamir added, \"The data were very well received by interventional radiologists attending the conference from around the world and locally here in Israel. We are pleased to advance ProSense®'s applications across numerous indications. Kidney cancer is an indication in which our minimally invasive cryoablation system may offer significant benefits.\"\nAbout ICESECRETProSense® is being evaluated for the indication of kidney cancer in ICESECRET, a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical trial performed at Bnai-Zion Medical Center, Haifa, Israel, a...
