CryoPen, a Gasless Cryotherapy System Adapted for Low-Resource Settings

Abstract

The development of human papillomavirus screening tests is outpacing the introduction of new treatment technologies. In low-resource settings, there is an urgent need for treatment methods that are accessible, affordable, and sustainable in areas with limited medical infrastructure. The gasless CryoPen® Cryosurgical System overcomes the limitations of traditional gas-based cryotherapy and is being adapted specifically for use in low-resource areas. The innovative device demonstrates exceptional portability, durability, and efficiency. The adapted CryoPen® is a simple, safe, and practical option for treatment of cervical precancer in settings that cannot support gas-based cryotherapy.
