Abstract
Abstract
The use of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is increasing in the treatment of both primary and metastatic hepatic tumors. However, the role of RFA has yet to be clearly defined in patients who are still considered amenable to surgical intervention. Future prospective studies are needed to define whether RFA can be used as an alternative to surgery in certain patient populations. In the interim, radiofrequency ablation technology will continue to advance and serve as both a palliative and potentially curative intervention for individuals with hepatic tumors.
