Abstract
Our experience indicates that image-guided RFA done by the thoracic surgeons is feasible and safe in high-risk patients with lung neoplasm with reasonable results in patients who are not fit for surgery. Thoracic surgeons can perform RFA safely, and should continue to investigate this new image-guided modality that may offer an alternative option in medically inoperable patients.
