Microwave ablation of pancreatic tumors

Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 2017
To evaluate the clinical performance of percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) for treatment of locally-advanced-pancreatic-cancer (LAPC).Twenty-two MWA sessions (August 2015-March 2017) in 20 patients with primary pancreatic cancer (13 men, 7 women, mean-age: 59.9 ± 8.6 years, range: 46-73 years), who had given informed consent, were retrospectively ...

Effects of Microwave Ablation of the Kidney

Journal of Endourology, 2010
Thermal ablative therapy with cryotherapy and radiofrequency ablation is currently being utilized for treatment of small renal masses. Recently, microwave ablation (MWA) has been investigated for soft tissue destruction, with limited clinical experience for renal masses. This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a new microwave system in

Microwave ablation for tachycardia

Images of the Twenty-First Century. Proceedings of the Annual International Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2003
Application of microwave energy delivered through a probe and a catheter in open- and closed-chest dogs to induce atrio-ventricular block is described. Several microwave antennas/catheters with a preferential power deposition at the tip were designed, constructed and tested. These antennas were designed for operation at 2450 MHz. Measurements in saline

Comparison of ablation volume in microwave ablation versus single session microwave ablation + TACE

2023
Background: Microwave ablation (MWA) is an effective minimally invasive treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma up to 3cm in size. Combination of MWA and trans arterial chemoembolization has been reported to result in larger area of ablation and successful ablation of tumours larger than 3cm. None of the studies, however, have quantified the increase of

Microwave Ablation for Adenomyosis

2014
Several minimally invasive ways, including uterine artery embolization, high-intensity focused ultrasound, radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and so on, have been used to reduce the patients’ symptoms of adenomyosis in the recent years. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation in treating ...

Percutaneous Microwave Ablation of Renal Angiomyolipomas

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2015
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of US-guided percutaneous microwave (MW) ablation in the treatment of renal angiomyolipoma (AML).From January 2011 to April 2014, seven patients (5 females and 2 males; mean age 51.4) with 11 renal AMLs (9 sporadic type and 2 tuberous sclerosis associated) with a mean size of 3.4 ± 0.7 cm (range 2.4-4.9 cm) were ...

Microwave Ablation on Spleen

2014
Microwave ablation has been accepted in the area of solid tumors, especially in liver cancer. With the development of microwave equipment, it is safer and more effective for spleen ablation. In this chapter, we review the equipment, indications, patient preparation, procedures, assistant techniques, clinical results, and complications of microwave ...

Radiofrequency Ablation and Microwave Ablation for Liver Tumors

2011
The development of image-guided percutaneous techniques for local tumor ablation has been one of the major advances in the treatment of liver malignancies. Among these methods, radiofrequency (RF) ablation is currently established as the primary ablative modality at most institutions.
