Percutaneous renal tumor ablation
Abdominal Imaging, 2008Recent increase in utilization of cross-sectional imaging has resulted in increased detection of early renal cancer. Percutaneous ablation is a relatively new technique for the treatment of renal cancer. This article provides an overview of clinical indications, technique, and results of percutaneous ablation of renal cancer.

Microwave ablation for liver tumors
Abdominal Radiology, 2016Surveillance programs and widespread use of medical imaging have increased the detection of hepatic tumors. When feasible, surgical resection is widely accepted as the curative treatment of choice, but surgical morbidity and mortality has spurred the development of minimally invasive ablative technologies over the last 2 decades. Microwave ablation has

Radiofrequency Ablation of Lung Tumors
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2010Lung cancer is the commonest cause of cancer-related mortality throughout the world. Only 25% of patients are diagnosed early and are candidates for surgical resection with curative intent. Many early-stage patients are medically inoperable owing to comorbidities.

Radiofrequency ablation of pulmonary tumors
European Journal of Radiology, 2010The development of image-guided percutaneous techniques for local tumor ablation has been one of the major advances in the treatment of solid tumors. Among these methods, radiofrequency (RF) ablation is currently established as the primary ablative modality at most institutions.

Radiofrequency Ablation of Renal Tumors
Future Oncology, 2008Development of cross-sectional imaging has led to a significant increase in diagnosis of small renal tumors. Nephron-sparing surgery has proven to be effective in the management of these small tumors. Could radiofrequency ablation be as effective in the management of these patients, after showing promising results in a selected group of patients?

Radiofrequency ablation of hepatic tumors
Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2002Radiofrequency thermal ablation is receiving increasing attention as an alternative to standard surgical therapies for the treatment of liver neoplasms. Benefits over surgical resection include the anticipated reduction in morbidity and mortality, low cost, suitability for real time image guidance, the ability to perform ablative procedures on ...

Eosinophil ablation and tumor development
Oral Oncology, 1999Tissue eosinophilia in squamous cell carcinoma has long been recognized; however, the role of eosinophils in tumor development remains unclear. Studies have reported both favorable and unfavorable prognoses for patients with tumors exhibiting tumor-associated tissue eosinophilia (TATE). This study seeks to elucidate the potential role of the eosinophil

New technologies in tumor ablation
Current Opinion in Urology, 2016The application of ablative modalities for small renal masses continues to increase. In addition, multiple technologies continue to be studied for the treatment of these renal masses. This review focuses on new and emerging technologies so that the clinician can become more familiar with these modalities as they become available in clinical practice ...

Thermal Ablation in Bone Tumors
2006In the past decade, percutaneous image-guided therapy of various soft tissue tumors has received significant attention. In particular microtherapy of hepatic lesions by thermoablation has extended throughout the world and is actually the best investigated field of percutaneous image-guided microtherapy.
