<unk>  is a form of thermal<unk>  used in interventional radiology to treat cancer.<unk>  uses electromagnetic waves in the<unk>  energy spectrum (300 MHz to 300 GHz) to produce tissue-heating effects. The oscillation of polar molecules produces frictional heating, ultimately generating tissue necrosis within solid tumors. It is generally used for the treatment and/or palliation of solid tumors in patients who are nonsurgical candidate.
