Liver Cancer Treatment

Tumors of the liver whether primary or coming from other organs such as the colon are unfortunately common. In addition to standard chemotherapy care, interventional procedures can make the difference.
We can treat liver tumors if they are multiple with radioembolization which causes cell death by radiation effect. If there are only few masses, they can be treated without surgery wit RF or MW ablation where a needle is placed in these masses under ultrasound or CT guidance and the heat created causes complete tumor cell necrosis.
Consultation with the oncologist and other members of the tumor board team is suggested for each patient to decide the best course of care.
