Headline: Laser surgery effective for liver cancer
A 12-year study conducted by German researchers found laser surgery using magnetic resonance guidance is effective in treating cancerous liver tumors in some patients.The laser surgery is less invasive, takes less time, and has lower morbidity rates than traditional surgery. Researchers think the treatment needs to be tested on a larger number of liver cancer patients before being considered an adequate replacement for surgery.
