| Core Tip |
Currently available non-surgical treatment options for locally advanced pancreatic cancer include systemic chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and minimally invasive image-guided procedures. The latter have emerged over the past years and include radiofrequency, microwave ablation, laser ablation, cryoablation, irreversible electroporation, high intensity focused ultrasound, and trans-arterial embolization procedures. Although initial results were not deemed satisfactory, mainly due to unacceptable complication rates, cumulative experience and technological advances have led to the improvement of outcomes of image-guided procedures and their incorporation in the treatment algorithm. |
