Today Skåne University Hospital (SUS) published a press release with the title “Laser surgery in a magnetic camera – new help for patients with brain tumors”. The PM provides an insight to the ongoing study using CLS products for laser surgery inside a MRI camera. The hospital writes that doctors now can treat patients with hard-to-reach brain tumors that medical care was previously unable to help. So far two patients with brain tumors have been successfully treated as part of the study.

At CLS we can look back on an exciting year where we have made significant progress towards our vision that laser ablation will be introduced as standard treatment in focal therapy and as an alternative to traditional surgery and, in the longer term, as a complementary systemic treatment of metastasized cancer.

Dr Eric Walser is an internationally recognized interventional radiologist with extensive clinical experience of using non-surgical ablation for the treatment of small tumors as an alternative to traditional surgery. Dr Eric Walser uses the TRANBERG® Thermal Therapy System to treat localized prostate cancer in clinical practice.
