Liver tumours

Primary liver cancers and some metastases may be treated with surgery, thermal ablation, radiation or systemic drugs. IRE has been discussed in the literature for lesions where heat-based ablation could risk injury to adjacent bile ducts or major vessels, always within individualised planning.

Multidisciplinary input

Liver treatment planning usually involves hepatobiliary surgeons, interventional radiologists and oncologists. Imaging review on a high-quality arterial and portal phase CT or MRI is standard.

Referral pathways

If your question is primarily liver-focused, your GP will usually refer to a liver multidisciplinary service. Dr Kooner's urology practice can address urological cancers and may coordinate with other teams when care overlaps.

This overview is not a recommendation for or against IRE in your case. Only your treating team can integrate imaging, pathology and comorbidity data.

Considering focal therapy or IRE?

You can ask for a second opinion on imaging, diagnosis and treatment options before you decide.
