Theoretical Modeling for Hepatic Microwave Ablation
Thermal tissue ablation is an interventional procedure increasingly being used for treatment of diverse medical conditions. Microwave ablation is emerging as an attractive modality for thermal therapy of large soft tissue targets in short periods of time, making it particularly suitable for ablation of hepatic and other tumors. Theoretical models of the ablation process are a powerful tool for ...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of osteoid osteoma in common and technically challenging locations in pediatric population
CONTEXT Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of osteoid osteoma has a high technical and clinical success rate. However, there is limited data on its use in the pediatric population, especially in technically challenging locations. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety and efficacy of computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous RFA of osteoid osteoma in pediatric population. PATIENTS AND ME...
متن کاملMicrowave Tumor Ablation
According to a 2012 American Medical Association publication (Clinical Examples in Radiology, Vol. 8, Issue 3; Summer 2012), “microwave is part of the radiofrequency spectrum, and simply uses a different part of the radiofrequency spectrum to develop heat energy to destroy abnormal tissue.” Therefore, they instruct that microwave ablation should be reported using the CPT codes for radiofrequenc...
متن کاملPredictors of thrombosis in hepatic vasculature during microwave tumor ablation of an in vivo porcine model.
PURPOSE To evaluate and model the risk of in vivo thrombosis in each hepatic vessel type during hepatic microwave ablation as a function of vessel diameter, velocity, and vessel-antenna spacing. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single microwave ablation antenna was inserted into a single porcine lobe (n = 15 total) adjacent to a hepatic artery, hepatic vein, or portal vein branch. Conventional ultraso...
متن کاملMicrowave Tumor Ablation of Vertebral Bone Metastasis: A Case Report
Introduction: Thermal ablation by microwave (MWA) has proven efficacy in treatment of primary and metastatic cancers. Soft tissue tumors could be ablated completely using MWA. However, bony tissue metastasis particularly spinal vertebral metastasis ablation has not reported yet. Case presentation: A 50 year old male patient with primary diagnosed colon cancer undergone surgical resection of ...
