Patient's clinical and radiology findings, pathology findings, survival, treatment responses, and complications after their locoregional therapy will be studied.
详细描述
The efficacy of the percutaneous and transarterial treatments for solid tumors will be studied. Prospective study on patients who receive percutaneous locoregional therapies, including radiofrequency ablation (RFA), cryoablation, microwave ablation, IRE and chemical ablation for treatment of cancer will be performed.
Preoperative clinic chart, procedure note, postoperative chart, pre- and post-operative CT, MRI or Ultrasound, angiographic findings, biopsy results and pathologic findings, will be reviewed. Patient survival, treatment responses, complications after the therapy will be collected from clinic visits and clinical encounters.
