CryoPen, LLC Launches Revolutionary, State-of-the-Art Medical Device; The Future of Cryosurgery in a Pen.


HOUSTON -- The most advanced, state-of-the-art technology in the field of cryosurgery cryosurgery (krī`ōsr'jərē), bloodless surgical technique using a supercooled probe to destroy diseased or superfluous tissue. , the CryoPen(R) Cryosurgical System, was recently launched by CryoPen, LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol.

LLC - Logical Link Control
, announced Dr. Michael Haas, the technology's inventor.

"The CryoPen is the most significant cryosurgical advance in a generation and will most certainly revolutionize cryosurgery. The last new technology in the field was more than 30 years ago," said Haas, CryoPen President.

The CryoPen is the safest instrument available because it uses a state-of-the-art, linear compression cooling technology that does not require handling of dangerous cryogenic gases and liquids, such as with existing cryosurgical technologies of the 1970s. In addition to not being exposed to potentially dangerous gases or liquids, the pen-point precision and consistent freeze temperature of the CryoPen reduces the risks of serious burns, according to according to

"The non-evasive, patient-friendly CryoPen is also the most effective cryosurgical technique because it simplifies the complexities involved by predetermining variables, such as time, angle, and distance," Haas added. "Once the system is at optimal temperature, the CryoPen is ready for accurate and predictable cryosurgery."

The CryoPen also makes cryosurgery safer and easier for office staff, who will no longer have to regularly handle and order hazardous gases or liquids mandatory of most traditional methods. Plus, with the CryoPen, the treatment has a minimal scarring and no need for anesthetic.

For some procedures, reimbursement is more than $200, according to national averages derived from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), previously known as the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), is a federal agency within the United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) that administers the Medicare program and  data.

Dr. Kyle Dean, a Louisiana physician who has used the CryoPen in his practice, said he considered the CryoPen one of the best equipment purchases that he has ever made.

"My staff no longer uses valuable time pouring liquid nitrogen Noun 1. liquid nitrogen - nitrogen in a liquid state

 from one container to another," Dean said. "And, if there is a delay in the treating a patient, I do not have to worry; the pens stay ready for 30 minutes, whereas liquid nitrogen would have evaporated."
