Microwave ablation - a micro-innovation choice for precise "heating" of tumors

At the Guangzhou R&F Hospital Tumor Center, a microwave needle of only 5 mm is rewriting the anti-cancer story of patients in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. This technology, certified by the US FDA, has achieved the medical breakthrough of "same-day treatment and same-day eating" for 237 lung cancer and liver cancer patients in Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and other countries.

 

Understand microwave ablation in 3 steps

  1. Precise locking: Ultrasound + CT dual navigation positioning, error <1mm (equivalent to 2 hairs)

  2. High-temperature inactivation: The microwave needle punctures the center of the tumor and emits a high temperature of 60℃ (3 minutes to destroy 3cm lesions)

  3. Real-time monitoring: The intelligent temperature control system automatically protects the surrounding blood vessels and nerves

Microwave ablation is a "non-surgical" tumor treatment technology. Under the precise guidance of CT, ultrasound and other imaging equipment, the doctor punctures a microwave ablation needle of only 1-2 mm into the tumor, and releases microwave energy to instantly heat the tumor tissue to 60℃-100℃. High temperature will directly "solidify" cancer cells, causing them to completely necrotize, with almost no damage to surrounding normal tissues. The whole process is like placing a "mini microwave oven" inside the tumor to accurately eliminate the lesion.

Technical regional advantages

Compared with the monopolar radiofrequency ablation commonly used in Southeast Asia (the treatment range is limited to 2cm), the cold circulation microwave system introduced by our hospital can achieve:

  • Leading technology: Intelligent adjustment of the shape of the ablation area (spherical/ellipsoidal free switching)

  • Efficient: Synchronous treatment of 5 satellite lesions, a single treatment can inactivate tumors with a diameter of ≤5cm, and the average hospitalization time for multinational patients is only 3 days, saving time and cost.

  • High success rate: The success rate of kidney-preserving treatment for common renal cancer in Arab patients is 91.3%

  • High safety: For tumors in sensitive organs such as liver and lung, artificial ascites isolation, three-dimensional reconstruction navigation and other technologies are used to avoid damage to key tissues such as blood vessels and bile ducts.

Real case witness:

hope for treatment across borders Ms. Aisha (52 years old), a breast cancer recurrence patient in Dubai, UAE, underwent our 3D navigation microwave ablation:

  • Treatment duration: 27 minutes

  • Normal diet 6 hours after surgery

  • Discharged from hospital 3 days after treatment and flew back to Dubai

  • No recurrence after 12 months of follow-up

"The Guangzhou doctor solved my fear with a magical needle. During the treatment, I was even able to video chat with my daughter." - Aisha's postoperative comments

 

Guangzhou R&F Hospital International Cancer CenterOther cases:

Lung cancer patient (Saudi Arabia, 68 years old)

The patient could not undergo surgery due to poor cardiopulmonary function, and the local hospital recommended palliative chemotherapy. After microwave ablation treatment in our hospital, the 4cm tumor in the right lung was inactivated at one time. She was discharged from the hospital 3 days after surgery, and her cough and chest pain symptoms were significantly relieved.

Recurrence of liver cancer (Malaysia, 55 years old)

Recurrence in the portal area after liver cancer surgery, traditional radiotherapy is prone to damage the bile duct. Our hospital uses CT combined with ultrasound guidance to accurately ablate the lesions, and the liver function is normal after surgery, without complications such as jaundice.

Bone tumor (Indonesia, 22 years old)

The 6 mm osteoid osteoma of the left femur causes severe pain, and traditional surgery is very traumatic. Microwave ablation only leaves a 1.5 cm needle hole, and the pain is relieved the next day after surgery, and the patient can walk normally.

Global recognition of microwave ablation

International authoritative guidelines (such as NCCN) have listed microwave ablation as one of the radical means for early liver cancer and lung cancer, and the efficacy is equivalent to surgery. For metastatic tumors and postoperative recurrences, it is a key technology to prolong survival and improve quality of life.



 

Guangzhou R&F Hospital Cancer Center has a world-leading microwave ablation expert pool, especially equipped with Arabic and Malay-speaking full-time medical staff. In response to the religious needs of patients from different countries, we provide:

  • Exclusive diagnosis and treatment channels for female doctors

  • Flexible appointments during prayer times

  • Customized halal food services

 

Guangzhou R&F Hospital Cancer Center opens the era of "survival without chemotherapy" for cancer patients and wins a lasting victory for life.
