​​Powerhouse Collaboration, Building a Regional Hub for Minimally Invasive Therapy​

​​Wuwei Cancer Hospital Minimally Invasive Tumor Treatment Center​​ has always adhered to its core philosophy of ​​"precision, minimally invasive techniques, efficiency, and humanistic care."​​ Equipped with internationally advanced systems such as ​​DSA interventional systems, radiofrequency ablation devices, hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy machines, and radioactive seed treatment planning systems​​, the center has mastered specialized techniques including ​​tumor vascular intervention, microwave ablation, radioactive seed implantation, and hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy​​. Through this ​​in-depth collaboration with Professor Zhang Kaixian’s team​​, both parties will focus on advancing ​​three key initiatives​​:

1.Technological Advancements: We have introduced cutting-edge technologies including: Multimodal ultrasound/CT-guided tumor ablation for complex anatomical sites, 3D template-guided precision particle implantation, Percutaneous Vertebroplasty (PVP). Our image-guided minimally invasive tumor therapies now feature: 3D-printed template-guided radioactive seed implantation, Microwave ablation combined with bone cementoplasty for spinal metastases, Microwave ablation with Reinforced Cementoplasty (RCC) for bone metastases, Concurrent biopsy and microwave ablation for small malignant pulmonary nodules.

2. Discipline Co-development: Expert-led surgical demonstrations, Multidisciplinary consultation for complex cases, Academic lecture series, Establishment of standardized minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment protocols.

3. Research Innovation: Joint application for national/provincial-level research projects on minimally invasive oncology, Translation of clinical techniques into research achievements, Promotion of evidence-based medical practices.

Centered on patients, Illuminate New Hope of life

"Minimally invasive therapy represents the inevitable future of oncology—delivering precise tumor ablation while optimally preserving patients' organ function," stated Professor Zhang Kaixian. "I will collaborate closely with Wuwei Cancer Hospital's team to bring cutting-edge minimally invasive technologies to patients' doorsteps."

Future Outlook

With the addition of Professor Zhang Kaixian's team, Wuwei Cancer Hospital will leverage its Minimally Invasive Oncology Center as a platform to: strengthen collaborations with China's top-tier medical institutions, accelerate clinical adoption of innovative therapies and advanced technologies, deliver more efficient and patient-centered care to oncology patients across the Hexi Corridor and Northwest China.

Tumor Minimally Invasive Treatment Center

Discipline Introduction

As the benchmark for oncological care in Wuwei, Gansu Province, the Minimally Invasive Therapy Center at Wuwei Cancer Hospital adheres to a "patient-centered, technology-driven" philosophy. Leveraging state-of-the-art equipment, elite medical teams, and extensive clinical expertise, we have established a comprehensive oncology platform integrating minimally invasive intervention, precision treatment, and enhanced recovery after surgery. At this inaugural stage, our center is launching advanced minimally invasive technologies including: hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy, High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU, "Haifu Knife"), radiofrequency Ablation (RFA), these cutting-edge modalities deliver safer, more effective treatment options for cancer patients.

Professional Characteristics

1. Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) – The "Thermal Revolution" in Oncology

For peritoneal metastases (e.g., gastric/ovarian cancers), our center pioneers HIPEC. This technology circulates precision-temperature-controlled (42-43°C) chemotherapeutic agents directly into the abdominal cavity, where hyperthermia enhances drug penetration and eradicates free cancer cells while minimizing systemic toxicity. Compared to conventional therapies, HIPEC offers: Minimal invasiveness, Localized high drug concentration, Superior recurrence prevention. Particularly effective for palliative care and postoperative adjuvant therapy in advanced-stage patients.

2. High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU, "Haifu Knife") – The "Invisible Scalpel" for Non-Invasive Ablation

This focused ultrasound technology delivers 60-100°C thermal energy to precisely target tumors without incision or radiation damage. Proven effective for: Liver/pancreatic cancers, Uterine fibroids, Patients achieve rapid recovery (ambulatory within 24 hours) with significantly improved comfort.

3. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) – "Precision Strike" Through Micro-Incision

Under imaging guidance, RFA needles percutaneously deliver high-frequency currents to induce tumor necrosis. Key applications:

• Curative treatment for early-stage lung/liver/thyroid cancers

• Needle-sized entry points with minimal scarring

Our personalized protocols provide new options for elderly patients or those with comorbidities ineligible for traditional surgery.

Expert team

The department has an expert team composed of chief physicians, associate chief physicians, and attending physicians, who possess extensive clinical experience and profound academic accomplishments. The team boasts strong technical skills and advanced diagnostic and treatment capabilities. Additionally, our department has invited Professor Zhang Kaixian, Chief Physician of the Comprehensive Oncology Department at Tengzhou Central People's Hospital, to serve as a visiting professor. He specializes in ​​image-guided minimally invasive tumor therapy​​ and has pioneered several techniques in China, including: ​​3D-printed non-small nodule precision puncture biopsy​​, ​dosimetry studies on esophageal radioactive seed stents​​, ​​microwave ablation combined with bone cementoplasty for vertebral metastases​​, ​​3D-printed coplanar template-guided radioactive seed implantation​​. He has participated in ​​6 national and provincial multicenter research projects​​, led ​​1 Shandong Province multicenter study​​, published ​​over 20 academic papers​​ (including ​​7 SCI-indexed articles​​), and received ​​5 Zaozhuang City Science and Technology Progress Awards​​.

Service philosophy

The department adheres to a ​​"patient-centered"​​ service philosophy, prioritizing patient experience and satisfaction. We provide a ​​warm and comfortable​​ medical environment along with ​​efficient and convenient​​ treatment processes. Additionally, the department conducts ​​health education initiatives​​ to enhance public awareness and prevention knowledge about cancer.
