Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. It usually occurs in the breast tissue and is a type of cancer called "adenocarcinoma", which means that the cancer cells originate from the glandular tissue. There are also other types, such as sarcomas that originate from muscle, fat or connective tissue. Based on the histopathologic type of breast cancer, breast cancer is classified into two broad categories: breast cancer in situ and invasive cancer.

Breast Cancer

The exact cause of breast cancer is not fully understood, but there are a number of possible risk factors, such as family genetics, age, hormone exposure, obesity, and dietary habits. According to the World Health Organization, in 2014, there were 5,410 new cases of breast cancer and 2,524 deaths in Malaysia, the second highest mortality rate.

So can middle and late-staged breast cancer be treated? Minimally invasive techniques with few side effects and minimal trauma allow breast cancer patients to avoid mastectomy and be free from the side effects of radiation and chemotherapy. 

 

Liver cancer Traditional Treatment Methods
 

Liver cancerSurgical treatment
Surgery to remove cancerous tissue and clean cervical lymph nodes that may have metastasis.

 

Liver cancerRadiation Therapy
Radiation therapy for follicular adenocarcinoma.

 

Liver cancerChemotherapy
Often used as palliative therapy for inoperable or distantly metastatic advanced cancer.

 

Liver cancerChinese treatment
Traditional Chinese medicine therapy can inhibit the development of cancer, improve the immune function of patients with thyroid cancer, and reduce the toxic and side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

 

Liver cancer Treatment Technology
 

1. Nanoknife Technology

Nanoknife is a brand-new cutting-edge ablation technology for tumor treatment. It breaks the membrane of tumor cells with high voltage pulses from electrode probes, resulting in multiple irreversible nano-meter electroporated holes, which is applicable to pancreatic cancer.

2. Radiofrequency Ablation

Radiofrequency ablation, sometimes referred to as RFA, is a minimally invasive treatment for cancer. It is an image-guided technique that heats and destroys cancer cells. Under the guidance of image, RFA, a physical method to inactive and kill the tumor, is performed with minima.

3. DEB-TACE

Drug-eluting beads transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) is an interventional therapy used in tumor treatment. It is a tiny sphere made of polymers or ceramics with a certain range of sizes and with anti-tumor drugs encapsulated inside.

4. Particle Knife

Particle knife (also called 125I Seed Implants) is applied to a variety of primary and metastatic tumors nowadays. 125I seeds are some small iodine radioactive particles that can give off short-range γ-ray to kill tumor cells continuously.

5. Combined Knife

Combined Knife, it’s not actual surgical knife, but a composite cryogenic freezing surgical system, which conduct cold and heat ablation treatment with liquid-nitrogen by one or more ablation needles.

6. Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy, also named cryosurgery therapy or cryoablation, is a medical technique both ancient and modern.

7. Interventional Therapy

Interventional therapy is a mini-invasive therapy performed under the guidance of medical imaging equipments. With a 1-2 millimeter incision, paracentesis can be performed with the lead of medical imaging equipment.
