In June of 23, I was the first person to have Ablation done to my Lung Tumor at the Mayo Clinic. The only doctor that I know of that is doing this type of cancer treatment is the head of the radiology department at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. They are looking for 14 more healthy people with a cancer tumor that can be Ablated to cure of lung cancer.

(66 y.o. male from Ames, IA now s/p ablation of 2.3 x 3.2 x 3.4 cm left lung mass.
Using sterile technique, and CT guidance, and general anesthesia provided by the
Department of Anesthesiology, percutaneous pulsed electrical field ablation of a lingular mass was performed using a single electrode for 8 overlapping ablations. A percutaneous biopsy of the mass was done prior to the ablation. Doing well in post-procedure area without N/V, uncontrolled pain, or difficulty speaking or swallowing. Post-procedural chest XR shows no development of pneumothorax.)
