Nimbus® Large-volume radiofrequency lesioning for advanced pain management

Nimbus® is an advanced radiofrequency ablation (RFA) solution designed to create large, anatomically accurate lesions, improving procedural reliability and long-term pain relief.

When combined with dedicated radiofrequency cannulas and accessories, Nimbus® enables a precise, efficient and reproducible RFA approach, addressing anatomical variability and reducing the risk of technical failure during pain treatment procedures.

System Overview

The Nimbus® RF system consists of:

  • Nimbus® expandable multi-tined RF electrode for large-volume monopolar and bipolar lesioning
  • Dedicated RF cannulas and accessories, engineered for optimal positioning and energy delivery

Indications

Nimbus® RF is intended for radiofrequency neurotomy procedures for pain management, including:

  • Lumbar medial branch radiofrequency ablation
  • Sacroiliac joint radiofrequency ablation
  • Procedures requiring large and anatomically conforming RF lesions
  • Genicular nerves

Clinical Value

  • More predictable and durable pain relief
  • Improved procedural consistency and safety
  • Reduced need for repeat procedures due to missed targets
  • Clinically validated large lesion geometry

Key Features

  • Large-volume monopolar lesion — 10 x 11 mm with a volume of 601mm³, compared to the 200mm³ volume of the standard monopolar lesion.
  • Large-volume bipolar lesion — Designed to create a significantly larger lesion (approximately 30 x 11 mm) than standard RF cannulas, improving target capture and treatment coverage.
  • Directional and expandable electrode design — Enables perpendicular or parallel positioning to adapt to different anatomical targets.
  • Reduced technical failure rate — Larger lesion size helps overcome anatomical variability and positioning sensitivity.
  • Workflow efficiency — Simple technique with reduced procedural time compared to conventional RFA approaches.
