Radio Frequency Ablation. Requires and overnight stay and a bandaid! Radiologist uses a probe that opens and surround the lesion and burns out the tumor and margins. It works best on tumors that are smaller than 3 cm and if there are not more that 3 or 4 lesions. The liver will regenerate itself and you can burn quite a bit of it and still have normal function. RFA was the best thing I ever did. I followed up with chemo. Let me know if you need additional info. or the name of my doctor. Best of luck to you and God bless. sgurleski@westosoisd.esc2.net
