Abstract: Clinical studies have confirmed that cryoablation is a safe and effective treatment for lung cancer. Cryoablation has been clinically used in the treatment of various types of lung cancer, and has achieved good therapeutic effects. Some of the complications of cryoablation can be alleviated after symptomatic treatment. However, cryoablation still needs further research and exploration in clinical applications.
