The size of my tumor is similar to yours. My doctor didn't mention any issue with size being a factor relative to nanoknife. My next scan is in early November, and we too are looking for shrinkage. But if none, my understanding is that nanoknife is an option in the near future. Radiation seems to be discouraged if nanoknife is being considered. I'll post an update when new information is available.

I was encouraged to do the radiation since the chemo didn't work. Originally it was going to be the 5 1/2 week radiation since the SBRT required metal markers which would rule out the Nano-knife but the surgeon connected me with a radiation oncologist who has done SBRT without markers. So...I have my 5th and final treatment on Monday. Then it's a wait and see for 2 months.

Who is your NanoKnife doctor?
