About this episode

Dr. Linda Chu and Dr. Christos Georgiades discuss thermal and non-thermal liver ablation techniques and their clinical implications.

Dr. Linda Chu and Dr. Christos Georgiades for an in-depth look at thermal and non-thermal liver ablation, explaining how techniques like microwave ablation, cryoablation, and histotripsy work at a mechanistic level. Their conversation also explores how clinicians choose the right approach for each patient and highlights emerging advances in immunologic strategies and AI shaping the future of liver tumor treatment.
