Objective: To maximize local tumor control, stabilize affected bones, and preserve or replace joints with minimal interventional burden, thereby enhancing quality of life for empowered living.
Indications: Suitable for patients with bone metastases, particularly those with severe pain and/or fractures and appropriate life expectancy.
Contraindications: In primary bone tumors, refer to the sarcoma surgery team for evaluation of wide resection.

Background: Cryoablation (cryo) is a local anti-tumor method and activation of immunity is one of its mechanisms, but it is affected by many factors. Numerous studies have proved that combination therapy based on cryo can activate immunity more effectively and synergistically. Cryo combined with chemotherapy(chemo) has been proven to improve the quality of life and prolong survival of tumor patients, but the immune effect is still unclear.

Background And Objective: In patients diagnosed with bladder cancer (BC), muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) accounts for 25%, including tumors invading the intrinsic muscle layer (T2), surrounding tissues of the bladder (T3), or adjacent pelvic organs/structures (T4). Cryoablation promises to be a novel interventional oncology technique, which effectively induces cellular destruction through freezing and thawing cycles. In addition to the direct tumor-killing effect, it also has a tumor-immune effect.
