Microwave Ablation
Development of ablation techniques: microwave ablation is now the latest advance in treating tumors with heat.
Choices of treatment, be it percutaneous, laparoscopic, or open surgical access, are combined with imaging guidance. The tumor is implanted with a thin (14.5-gauge) antenna that sits directly in the cancer. In contrast, the tumor is being microwaved or exchanged with a generator that outputs electromagnetic waves through the uncovered section of the antenna.
Water molecules in the surrounding tissues are set in motion by electromagnetic
microwaves. This results in warming as well as friction and causes water molecules to die by the method of coagulation necrosis.
While the existing Thermo ablative techniques of microwave ablation offer promises for treating primary and secondary diseases, liver disease, secondary and primary cancerous lung tissue, renal and adrenal tumors, and bone metastases, it lacks merit along with basi
c technology in its infancy. Improvement in clinical implementation in ca
ncer patients will offer promising prospects in the future.
With increasing intratumoral temperature thermos, thermosablative issues are claimed to reduce tumor ablation volume while simultaneously growing its speed along with altering the convection profile during ablation.
