    This is a John Kanzius Research. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) which is a type of Electrical Energy is used to treat cancer. It u ses heat made by radio waves to kill cancer cells. Ablation means destroying completely. The method is putting RFA a probe (electrode) that goes through the skin into the tumour. A CT scan is needed so to check that the probe is in exactly the right place. An electrode in the probe creates radiofrequency energy to produce heat and kill the cancer cells.
