BY Ina Barton 2018-06-04Radiofrequency thermotherapy is a recent new technology. In the past two years, a multi-warhead automatic navigation radiofrequency in situ inactivation of liver cancer (RF therapy for short) has been developed internationally. The treatment principle is that the electrodes are guided by ultrasound or CT through a few very small needles. Directly placed percutaneously on the liver tumor, and then the electrodes emit high-energy radio frequency waves, causing cancer tissue proteins to solidify and die. The patient can be discharged after only 1-2 days of observation. This method can complete the inactivation of tumor tissues within 5 cm in diameter, and the inactivated tumor tissues remain in the body, which can stimulate a beneficial immune response and help improve the cure rate.5
