When surgery is not possible, then tumor ablation may be considered. In the past we discussed the benefits of Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS).  Additional options are Cryosurgery, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), laser-induced thermal therapy (LITT), microwave ablation, and focused ultrasound (FUS). All of these are currently the most widely used minimally invasive procedures for tumor ablation.
