Cutting electrosurgical unit CURIS®

bipolar coagulationradiofrequency

The CURIS® 4 MHz radiofrequency generator relies on innovative 4 MHz technology: It is gentle to the tissue and effective for coagulation, for submucosal shrinkage, and for cutting. Scientific studies have shown that tissue trauma may be reduced by using CURIS® 4 MHz radiofrequency technology.*1 The higher the frequency, the less the resistance of biological tissue to electromagnetic fields – up to the point where cell membranes are capacitively coupled. This effect is created by the CURIS® 4 MHz radiofrequency generator in all monopolar and bipolar modes. When using conventional electrosurgical units the electromagnetic field concentrates between the cells and only heats up the outer layer. However, with the CURIS® 4 MHz radiofrequency generator cell membranes are conductive, and energy is absorbed evenly inside the cells. As a result, energy is administered gently and in a highly focused fashion. Precise monopolar cuts are possible while lateral heat damage is kept to a minimum.*2 Precision thanks to AutoRF ™ AutoRF™ is a smart impedance control function that will tailor the power output of the CURIS® 4 MHz radiofrequency generator to the tissue condition. Whether it is cutting through different types of tissue (such as mucosa, muscle, fat or connective tissue) or altering tissue conditions during coagulation, the AutoRF™ feature will deliver adapted power output as required by the different tissue impedance. When dissecting different types of tissue in one cut (skin, fat, muscles), the unit has to process and respond to the AutoRF™ data in a flash.
