JACC: CardioOncology - Echocardiography-Guided Radiofrequency Ablation for Cardiac Tumors
In this podcast, Dr. Tim Markmann discusses a groundbreaking method for treating cardiac tumors using echocardiography-guided transapical radiofrequency ablation. This innovative approach from Dr. Liwen Liu and his team, which involves delivering thermal energy to the tumor via a percutaneous needle, shows promising results in reducing tumor size and alleviating heart failure symptoms, though it requires further study to address potential risks such as ventricular arrhythmias.
