(PharmaNewsWire.Com, January 12, 2018 ) Tissue ablation is a minimally invasive (MI) , image-guided treatment modality used to treat, modify, or destroy cells (that are cancerous) . In this process, a specifically equipped needle (probe) is inserted near the site of the tissue under study, and is guided by computed tomography (CT) . Once the probe is in place, electricity (RFA) , radio waves (microwave ablation) , or liquid nitrogen (cryoablation) is transmitted through the probe. These kill the cells and reduce the size of the tissue (tumor) , thereby facilitating effective treatment with radiation therapy or chemotherapy. The tissue ablation technique has proven beneficial for individuals with myocardial tissue, corneal surface laser ablation, prostate tissue, and small tumors (3-5 cm) , but is not recommended for individuals with large tumors and impaired organ function.
