Its goal is to decrease cell growth and reproduction ( cellular metabolism ), increase cellular survival, decrease inflammation , decrease pain and spasm, promote the constriction of blood vessels ( vasoconstriction ), and when using extreme temperatures, to destroy cells by crystallizing the cytosol , which is the liquid found inside cells, also known as intracellular fluid (ICF).The most prominent use of the term refers to the surgical treatment, specifically known as cryosurgery .
