| Abstract | Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of death throughout the world. Although surgery is the gold standard treatment for lung cancer, the majority of patients are not resectable at the time of diagnosis. Even among patients who are potentially resectable, many are treated nonoperatively because of inadequate pulmonary reserve or advanced comorbidities. Despite aggressive multiple-drug regimens and the addition of radiation treatment, survival remains poor without surgery, and recurrence is the rule regardless of the initial treatment. Radiofrequency ablation can be performed via a percutaneous approach under conscious sedation, and side effects are generally mild and self limited, primarily consisting of pneumothorax. Radiofrequency ablation can be applied to primary pulmonary malignancies and metastatic lesions and is reported to achieve excellent local control in limited clinical series. Human and animal studies supporting the use of radiofrequency ablation for pulmonary malignancy are reviewed, and the current application of radiofrequency ablation and its limitations are described herein. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
