Abstract
A method of performing a cryoablation treatment includes initiating a flow of cryogen to a tip of the cryoprobe and obtaining ice formation data characterizing a shape of ice forming at a target tissue in a patient. The method also includes comparing the ice formation data to a predetermined ice formation profile and energizing a heating portion on the cryoprobe to limit growth of ice in a first direction relative to a predetermined location on the cryoprobe while the cryogen flows to the tip of the cryoprobe.
