Cryogenic freezing is the process of cooling down a living creature to the point where cellular decay is slowed or halted, with as little damage to the creature as possible.

Suspended animation is a science fiction concept whereby all physical processes are halted, usually _without_ freezing. There's no known practical way to do it other than cryogenic freezing, though, and even then nobody's managed to freeze and revive anything larger than a rodent.

No, actually, suspended animation is possible. They use a cetin gass that slowes down the body.
