Lung ablation is ever more recognized since its initial report and use almost two decades ago. With technological advancements in thermal modalities, particularly microwave ablation and cryoablation, better identification of the cohort of patients who best benefit from ablation, and understanding the role of imaging after ablation, image-guided thermal ablation for primary and secondary pulmonary malignancies is increasingly recognized and accepted as a cogent form of local therapy.
自近二十年前首次报道并应用以来，肺消融术越来越受到认可。随着热消融技术的进步，尤其是微波消融和冷冻消融技术，能够更好地识别最能从消融术中获益的患者群体，并理解消融术后成像的作用，原发性和继发性肺恶性肿瘤的影像引导热消融作为一种有效的局部治疗方式，越来越受到认可和接受。
