NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation announced that it has successfully completed a feasibility study with its OneRF™ ablation system, a developing technology that utilizes existing implanted sEEG diagnostic electrodes for brain tissue lesioning. The study evaluated the Company's new RF ablation system in an animal model. The study used NeuroOne's FDA cleared sEEG electrodes combined with a proprietary RF generator and a unique temperature control accessory that monitors and maintains the temperature at which the ablation is performed.

This allows clinicians to set temperature and time for each ablation. Dr. Van Gompel and his team implanted five sEEG electrodes, performed electrophysiological recordings, and then completed a total of ten RF ablations using different settings for temperature and time. All ablations were confirmed by an MRI scan.

As previously reported, NeuroOne is also advancing a pipeline of therapeutic electrode technologies for chronic stimulation use for DBS (deep brain stimulation) and spinal cord stimulation for chronic back pain. These therapeutic electrode technologies represent addressable markets valued between $500 million and $6 billion.
