Does Cryoablation eliminate the need for anti-cancer medications or radiation?

Cryoablation is intended to eliminate the need for breast surgery. However, it does not replace other treatments that may be recommended to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Depending on your age, cancer characteristics, and overall risk profile, therapies such as radiation or medication may still play an important role in your care. These decisions are made thoughtfully and on an individual basis.

Understanding how Cryoablation fits within comprehensive cancer treatment can help you make informed decisions. Learn more at www.cryoablation.com. 🩺🧊

Is there a risk of recurrence in breast cancer with Cryoablation?

The success of Cryoablation depends on accurately identifying and targeting the entire cancerous area. During the procedure, we freeze not only the visible tumor but also a rim of surrounding tissue to account for areas that may not appear on imaging.

As with any breast cancer treatment, ongoing monitoring is essential. Follow-up imaging and, when appropriate, additional therapies such as medication or radiation may further reduce the risk of recurrence.
