Minimally Invasive Tumor Therapies
In the age of the World Wide Web, informed patients continue to surprise oncologists with detailed questions about popular tumor therapies. Although minimally invasive tumor therapies (MITT) have become daily clinical practice for palliative treatment of liver tumors, the acceptance of these palliative modalities still varies enormously. In addition, promising results have been published for in situ ablation of lung metastases, bone tumors, and renal cell carcinoma. This book gives an up-to-date overview of the popular techniques and clinical results of MITT, with a clarification of the actual indications including the size, tumor entities, and clinical benefits. Moreover, the book focuses on the prospectives and limitations of imaging methods - ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging - used for MITT.

Liver and Biliary Tract Surgery : Embryological Anatomy to 3D-Imaging and Transplant Innovations
The book also covers cutting-edge research and technological advances that will shape the surgery of tomorrow. There is little doubt that technological advances in preoperative imaging, such as 3-D reconstruction, preoperative preparation with portal vein embolisation and operative techniques using bloodless RF resection methods, are already changing the nature of liver surgery.
