International Academic Forum on Minimally Invasive Therapy for Tumor Treatment- New Anti-cancer Technology Nanoknife Release Conference, hosted by Vietnam Hanoi Society of Internal Medicine and co-organized by ASEAN Academic Committee of Minimally Invasive Therapy in Oncology and St. Stamford Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou, was successfully held in Melia Hotel Hanio on March 26, 2017. It was reported that such a huge conference not only brought the latest minimally invasive tumor treatment technologies of the 21st century, but also attracted numerous international authoritative oncology experts and local anti-cancer warriors as well as medical representatives and patients and their families from Hanoi Oncology Hospital, Bach Mai Hospital and the Third Affiliated Hospital of Central Cancer Hospital etc..

The Nanoknife Release Conference is in progress.

Besides particles implantation, microwave ablation and interventional therapy, Nanoknife anti-cancer technology was undoubtedly the highlight of the conference. In recent years, minimally invasive therapy has been proved to be effective in cancer treatment and was recognized as one of the effective treatments for moderate and advanced stage cancer patients. Nanoknife, as the latest minimally invasive technology applied to clinic, becomes a focus with its unique technological advantages.

During the conference, Professor Zhang Fujun, international pioneer of Minimally Invasive Therapy and Director Bai Haishan from St. Stamford Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou, member of Committee of Minimally Invasive Therapy in Oncology, Chinese Anti-Cancer Association, respectively gave a speech on the Current Status and Development Trend of Minimally Invasive Therapy in Oncology and the Advantages and Achievements of New Anti-cancer Nanoknife Technology.

Director Bai Haishan

According to Prof. Zhang Fujun, Nanoknife is a brand new, most advanced tumor ablation therapy, which breaks the membrane of tumor cells with high voltage pulses from electrode probes, resulting in multiple permanent nano-meters Irreversible Electroporation (IRE), damaging cells balance and accelerating the death of cancer cells.

Prof. Zhang Fujun

Blood vessels, bile duct and nerves are defined as forbidden treatment regions since tumor at the above regions are at a high risk of failing to protect other tissues surrounded, while Nanoknife can reserve surrounding tissues such as blood vessels, bile duct, nerves and ureter in the ablation region and at the same time normal cells will occupy the ablation region to resume proper function, which successfully make up the short boards of traditional cancer treatment and become a optimal choice for complicate organ cancer treatments such as pancreatic cancers and anus neoplasms etc..

As a big event, this conference captured the attention of many authoritative media in Vietnam, such as VTC, DANTRI, TIEN PHONG and SUC KHOE DOI SONG, they all deeply reported on this event. Besides, this conference made a great contribution to spread anti-cancer knowledge and the important role the latest anti-cancer technology play in cancer treatment and would also bring new hope to more cancer patients.

 Nanoknife Release Conference was successfully held in Melia Hotel Hanio.

It was reported that St. Stamford Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou, one of the co-organizer of this event, has already brought in Nanoknife last year and maturely applied to clinic and successfully improved the living quality of many middle-late cancer patients for whom surgical excision were not applicable or unacceptable, effectively prolonged their life.

*Surgery, in addition to the appropriate chemotherapy and radiotherapy, are effective in treating early cancer, but certain patients in late stage of cancer may not be tolerate surgery well as they can be relatively weak. A combination of carefully planned minimally invasive therapy, chemotherapy or radiotherapy can effectively reduce the side effects and discomfort of treatment and may help patient get better efficacy.
