最近一直在看脑转的治疗，发现还有另外3种治疗方法：
磁共振引导下的激光热疗法--MRI Guided LITT (Laser-induced thermal therapy)
Laser-induced thermal therapy (LITT) is the application of the high temperatures generated by the local absorption of laser energy. It can be used percutaneously (as a minimally invasive procedure) and during the open surgery as an additional tool in case when resection is complicated. Organs or tissues in which LITT has been used for this purpose include brain, head and neck, liver, kidneys, and prostate. Laser applicators for LITT may be inserted into target tissue using a number of image-guided techniques including x-ray fluoroscopy, ultrasound imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, or stereotaxic approaches. LITT has the advantage of the tiniest applicator possible between the all ablative techniques, but it is rarely available technology.
这种治疗在美国有2个临床试验：

听说德国法兰克福大学医院的Thomas Vogl 教授开展LITT的经验最丰富，邮件联系他了之后，提到还有一种脑部病灶的治疗方法：regioanl chemoperfusion of the brain mets with chemotherapy drugs.
第三种，重离子放疗。像肉瘤对放疗不敏感，连伽玛刀都做不掉脑里的病灶，重离子会不会管用呢？
国外的治疗方法很多，我们还是要保持眼界开阔一点。 |
