1 Proof-of-principle study of steam ablation as novel thermal therapy for saphenous varicose veins 
Renate R. van den Bos, MD, Rene Milleret, MD, Martino Neumann, MD, PhD, Tamar Nijsten, MD, PhD  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 53, Issue 1, Pages (January 2011) DOI: /j.jvs Copyright © 2011 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Photographs show (A) the Steam Vein Sclerosis device, (B) the steam generator, and (C) the steam catheter. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2011 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Photomicrographs show a vein (A) immediately after treatment with steam ablation and (B) at 20 days after treatment with steam ablation (both hematoxylin-eosin stain, original magnification ×40). C, Detail (hematoxylin-eosin stain, original magnification ×200). D, Photomicrograph shows a vein 3 months after treatment with steam ablation (hematoxylin-eosin stain, original magnification ×40).
