Argon-Helium Targeted Tumor Therapy is a minimally invasive surgical system (Endocare CryocareTM Surgical System) approved by FDA in 1998 and CE certified by EU, which represents the 21st century scientific and technological development. It adopts argon target cooling, helium target heating, biological sensing, timely monitoring and minimally invasive technologies, such as a number of U.S. computer and aerospace technology patents, and has become a new generation of high-tech development in the field of low-temperature targeted therapy, following the radio frequency, microwave, laser, ultrasonic aggregation,! -It is a new means of local ablation of tumor after radiofrequency, microwave, laser, ultrasonic aggregation, neutron ray and neutron ray. Because of its simple operation, strong targeting, wide indications, timely monitoring of the target area during treatment, low damage to the patient and precise ablation effect, CryocareTM Ar-He knife is one of the best means of treatment for patients with solid tumors that cannot be surgically resected radically.

Lung cancer is the most prevalent malignant tumor among urban and rural residents in China, with non-small cell lung cancer being the main type, accounting for 57%-80% of lung cancer. At present, the treatment of lung cancer is still mainly based on surgery, but because many patients are already in the middle and late stage when diagnosed, with large tumor load, many lesions and distributed in multiple parts, or because the function of patients’ heart, lung, liver, stomach and other organs can not withstand surgery, so that more than 70%-80% of tumor patients have lost the opportunity of conventional surgery for radical resection when they are admitted to hospital. Because of its precise control and clinical efficacy of targeting and destroying tumors, as well as its advantages of less damage to patients, fewer complications, faster recovery and simpler operation, argon-helium targeted cryotherapy has enabled most tumor patients who have lost the chance of radical resection by conventional surgery to regain the opportunity of minimally invasive surgical treatment, and at the same time, argon-helium targeted therapy can promote the immune response of the body, stimulate and improve the immune system of the body. The treatment of lung cancer is still in progress. At present, the treatment of lung cancer is still mainly based on surgery, but because most patients are already in the middle and late stages when diagnosed, they lose the opportunity of conventional surgery, and non-small cell lung cancer is insensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In recent years, the advent of Ar-He knife, an ultra-low temperature treatment device, has provided an effective treatment for lung cancer patients. Ar-He knife can rapidly cool and effectively destroy tumor cells, and then re-temperature and refreeze the cells for better necrosis. Ar-He knife percutaneous puncture treatment of lung tumor has the advantages of less damage, faster recovery and fewer side effects, especially for those who are old and weak and cannot tolerate surgical treatment, Ar-He knife provides a means of treatment. From the clinical data, the argon helium knife treatment group is late, older, with one or more diseases, such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, chronic bronchitis, obstructive emphysema, diabetes mellitus, etc. Many patients who cannot tolerate surgery and choose argon helium knife treatment can improve their immune function and enhance their overall anti-tumor ability.
In conclusion, argon helium targeted therapy system has the advantages of less trauma, less complications, faster recovery, safety and effectiveness, etc. It provides an effective treatment for patients with middle and late stage tumors, especially those who are old and weak and cannot tolerate surgery. It is a good treatment method and means for tumor patients. Ar-He knife percutaneous puncture treatment for lung tumor is a kind of treatment method with less damage to patients, fewer side effects, quicker recovery and precise efficacy, which provides an ideal treatment path for tumor patients. Ar-He knife treatment can not only observe the treatment effect from the macroscopic point of view, but also mobilize and stimulate the patient’s own immune function, which greatly improves the overall treatment effect of patients. It rapidly reduces the pain caused by tumors, prolongs the survival time and improves the quality of life.
