Abstract
Cryosurgery is fast gaining popularity as a minimally invasive surgery for treatment of various types of cancers. It involves destruction of cancer cells within a limited spatial domain by exposing them to very low temperatures while minimizing injury to the surrounding healthy tissues. The volumetric extent of the critical isotherm in the ice ball decides the efficacy of the cryosurgical process. The thermal history within the ice ball during the freezing process remains an unknown and possesses a major challenge in any cryosurgical process. Numerical simulations prove to be very useful in this regard.
