Sydney: Liverpool Hospital in Sydney has adopted a groundbreaking medical technology that treats tumors and relieves pain without surgery. The hospital is now using an MRI-guided cryoablation machine, which allows doctors to target tumors with high precision.
Cryoablation works by inserting a needle powered by gas into the tumor. The needle freezes the tissue, forming an iceball that destroys the tumor. MRI imaging monitors the procedure in real time, ensuring safety and accuracy.
The technique is especially beneficial for patients with painful or hard-to-reach tumors. It is minimally invasive, often allowing patients to return home the same day, with faster recovery and reduced physical stress.
Doctors say cryoablation is ideal for elderly patients, those with other health conditions, or patients who cannot undergo major surgery. It is also being used for tumors in sensitive areas such as the spine and pelvis, where conventional surgery could be risky or complicated.
This innovative approach reflects a growing trend in oncology to provide effective, low-risk treatments that improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
