Liver cancer is the most serious cancer that harms Chinese people. The treatment methods include surgical resection, embolization therapy, cryotherapy, alcohol injection, etc. Now doctors in South Korea and Taiwan are trying a radio frequency heating method, which is to insert a needle into the liver. For the liver cancer site, the cancer cells can be "burned to death" on the spot after heating, which is suitable for the treatment of metastatic or unsuitable liver cancer.
Lu Danian, the attending physician of the Department of Radiology and Diagnostics at Shin Kong Hospital, said that hospitals such as Zhenxing Hospital have introduced radio frequency heating to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma, while Taipei Veterans General Hospital and Taichung Veterans General Hospital have used radio frequency heating to treat liver cancer. About 113 days have passed. This case is expected to become a new treatment for liver cancer in the future.
At the International Symposium on Radiological Diagnosis and Therapy held by Shin Kong Hospital, Professor Jong-Tae Lee of the Department of Radiology at Yonsei University Medical Center in South Korea published a study pointing out that special needles were injected into the body under the guidance of ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging. Puncture to the tumor site of the liver, and then activate radio frequency waves to heat up to 50 degrees Celsius to destroy cancer cells.
Since March 2000, Li Zhongtai has used radio frequency waves to treat 128 patients with colorectal cancer and liver cancer. Only 3 patients had complications and no patients died. After 10 months of follow-up, nearly half of the patients had tumors completely. Elimination, only 3 cases of abdominal development, 12 cases of new tumors.
Lu Danian said that radio frequency heating is a low-invasive therapy for liver tumors. Like alcohol injection and embolization, it can be treated without opening the patient’s stomach. Liver cancer patients have new options.
Comment
"I have been emphasizing that hot water (that is, qi) is the only way to cure diseases. The hot medicine and yang medicine in traditional Chinese medicine are medicines that can vaporize the water in the whole body. All viruses and cancer cells Like cold water, once the water is hot, they will die of thirst because there is no water to drink. So this treatment is feasible, but there is still a disadvantage that it has not been studied which nutrition supports which cancer, if known, we only need To cut off the absorption of this nutrient for a period of time, the cancer cells will die of starvation first, and the human body will not die due to the lack of this nutrient alone, which is why cancer will come back after hyperthermia."
