Dr. Su:
There I would also cover some facilities that do not have that, and there are times where I am in there doing the ablation, and it’s then that I find out, ‘gosh, I have to be very, very close to some critical point, I don’t want to damage.' Then I essentially will abandon the procedure there and reschedule this procedure at a facility that has cryoablation.
