Microwave Ablation Techniques: Dr. Ed Kim's Approach | BackTable Podcast Ep. 495

Is your microwave ablation technique up to date? Dr. Ed Kim sits down with guest-host Dr. Kavi Krishnasamy to explore cutting-edge techniques in tumor ablation, with a focus on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment with microwave. Dr. Ed Kim is the Director of Interventional Oncology and Professor of Radiology and Surgery in the Division of Vascular and Interventional Radiology at the Mount Sinai Medical Center. --- This podcast is supported by an educational grant from Varian, a Siemens Healthineers company. --- SYNPOSIS The doctors discuss microwave ablation, radiation segmentectomy, and the decision-making algorithms for choosing appropriate procedures based on lesion characteristics. Dr. Kim touches on the complexities of ablation near the diaphragm and subcapsular lesions, emphasizing the impact of practitioner skill and experience on outcomes. Recent advancements in ablation technologies, software, and device-specific versus device-agnostic applications are also highlighted, along with the importance of post-contrast scans and ultrasound skills. Dr. Kim also delves into emerging technologies such as HistoSonics, augmented reality/virtual reality, and immunotherapy synergies. The doctors underscore the need for a multidisciplinary approach for optimizing patient outcomes and pushing the field toward future innovations. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 04:28 - Standardizing Ablation Algorithms 07:51 - Suboptimal Lesion Locations 13:06 - Device Selection and Properties 22:49 - Ablation Planning Software 32:53 - Real-Time Visualization 44:48 - Biopsy and Ablation Techniques 52:14 - Future of Ablation Technology --- RESOURCES Dr. Ed Kim’s Publications: https://scholars.mssm.edu/en/persons/...
