Pulmonary radiofrequency ablation (Part 2): Procedure and follow-up.
Pulmonary radiofrequency ablation requires more than just interventional radiology skills. Patients must be selected carefully, and the acts that need to be done before, during, and after the procedure must be coordinated. To guarantee patient safety, radiologists need to know the variants of the technique, the precautions that must be taken, the complications that can occur, and the risks invo...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of advanced lung tumors: imaging features, local control, and follow-up protocol.
To prospectively observe imaging features and local control of advanced lung tumors after radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and to propose a follow-up protocol post-ablation. 58 stage IV malignant lung tumor patients were enrolled in our study. One hundred of lung lesions were performed 77 sessions of RFA. Enhanced computed tomographic (CT) images of pre-ablation, 1-month, and 3-month post-ablatio...
متن کاملImaging follow-up of RF ablation of lung tumours
Imaging is important in the decision-making process of how to treat a lung tumour, which ideally should be a multi-disciplinary team decision. Imaging is important during radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment with regard to optimal placement of the electrode, the immediate post-treatment criteria and very early detection of complications of the procedure. Imaging is very important in the trea...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of lung tumours
Pulmonary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has become an increasingly adopted treatment option for primary and metastatic lung tumours. It is mainly performed in patients with unresectable or medically inoperable lung neoplasms. The immediate technical success rate is over 95%, with a low periprocedural mortality rate and 8-12% major complication rate. Pneumothorax represents the most frequent com...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of lung tumours
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a well-established local therapy for hepatic malignancies. It is rapidly emerging as an effective treatment modality for small lesions elsewhere in the body, in particular, the kidney and the lung. It is a relatively safe and minimally invasive treatment for small lung malignancies, both primary and secondary. In particular, it is the preferred form of treatment...
