Tumor Ablation (Radiofrequency, Microwave, Cryoablation)
About the Procedure
Tumor ablation is a minimally invasive treatment that destroys tumors using heat (radiofrequency or microwave) or extreme cold (cryoablation). Guided by CT or ultrasound imaging, a probe is inserted directly into the tumor to precisely target abnormal tissue while preserving surrounding healthy structures. This procedure is commonly used for liver, kidney, lung, and bone tumors, particularly in patients who are not candidates for surgery.
