Abstract

Percutaneous image-guided thermal ablation is an established form of treatment of small volume hepato-pancreatico-biliary (HPB) tumors with very satisfactory results over the last three decades. Purpose of this article is to offer a brief overview of the history of thermal ablation and the currently available technology that interventional radiologists have in their armamentarium to offer minimally invasive thermally for HPB cancer.

Keywords
