Comparing carbon dioxide checks during jet ventilation for liver tumor ablation

This study tests a new way to adjust the breathing machine (ventilator) during a tumor-destroying procedure called thermal ablation. The goal is to find the safest pressure settings to protect your lungs while you are sedated.

This trial compares two types of radiofrequency ablation (a heat-based treatment) for early-stage lung cancer that is located in the outer parts of the lung. One approach uses a needle through the chest wall, the other uses a bronchoscope through the airways. The goal is to see which works better for people who cannot have surgery.

This study compares two ways to destroy early-stage lung cancer without surgery: one using a needle through the chest (CT-guided) and another using a thin tube through the mouth (bronchoscopy-guided). It might be an option if you have small, outer-edge lung cancer and cannot or prefer not to have surgery.

This study follows patients who are having a procedure called thermal ablation to treat liver tumors. It aims to learn more about how well the procedure works and how safe it is.

This study tests a new way to measure how well your liver grows back and heals after part of it is removed. The goal is to predict and prevent complications after surgery.

This study tests new criteria for evaluating how well thermal ablation (using heat to destroy cancer nodules) worked in people with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, a type of liver cancer). It aims to improve follow-up imaging with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) or CT/MRI to see if the treatment was successful.
