A model for thermal monitoring in cryosurgery.
A biological model was designed to test the feasibility of making cryosurgical measurements and to determine if the measurements coincided with a theoretical mathematical model. The object of these studies was to convert cryosurgery from a qualitative to a quantitative therapeutic modality.
