Hi, I had liver ablation 1 year ago. Basicly a needle is inserted into the tumor. Then the tumor is heated up and killed. To be a candidate for this the tumor has to be below a certain size and you must have just a few tumors. My doc also would not do it if I had tumors other places. Each doc is different, so I would talk to a surgeon if you are interested in doing this. I had just one tumor on my liver. The RFA was a success, praise God, I have been clean for a year now.
