"clinical monitoring as per post-sedation or general anaesthesia recovery"
"NSCLC in stages I to IIIA has surgical resection as the standard of care. SBRT is commonly offered as a second-line treatment when there is a contraindication for surgery (e.g. poor cardiopulmonary reserve) 9. As per the European Society of Medical Oncology and American College of Chest Physicians, percutaneous ablation should be played as an alternative when both surgery and SBRT are contraindicated 9"
"stage I NSCLC"
"better outcomes are achieved in lesions inferior to 2 cm, therefore, percutaneous ablation is reserved for T1a and T1b NSCLC 9"
"patients with ECOG >2 9"
"NSCLC: ablation zone must be oversized by about 8-10 mm in all directions 4"
