Dr Woodrum at Mayo did a cryoablation of my kidney lesion the year before I had Tulsa, it was super easy and recovery was just a day if that. No operation. It was some "atypical" cells (not cancer and not normal so half way to whatever - which I will never know since it get frozen). My lesion enhanced on MRI and usually only cancer enhances so it was cells moving toward cancer but not there yet.

I had Tulsa Pro with Dr Scionti in Sarasota, mayo didn't have Tulsa yet and I might have not qualified at Mayo since they are doing a quick study. Tulsa is a real good option.
