Cadiofrequency Ablation For Cancer

Information may not be reliable

Radiofrequency ablation for cancer is a minimally invasive procedure that uses electrical energy and heat to destroy cancer cells. The radiologist uses imaging tests to guide a thin needle through the skin or through an incision and into the cancer tissue. High-frequency energy passes through the needle and causes the surrounding tissue to heat up, killing the nearby cells. Radiofrequency ablation is most commonly used to treat a spot of cancer that is causing problems such as pain or other discomfort, and is generally not used as the primary treatment for most cancers. Radiofrequency ablation is typically considered a treatment option only if you're not a good candidate for surgery for some reason — such as your overall health or the presence of many small tumors in an organ.
