MRI machine that's freezing tumors and saving patients from debilitating pain

Liverpool Hospital in Sydney has introduced Australia's first MRI machine capable of freezing tumors through a technique called cryoablation, where a gas-powered needle creates an iceball to destroy targeted tissue. The minimally invasive procedure allows same-day treatment and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery, as demonstrated by 64-year-old Josephine Cordina who experienced complete pain relief within 24 hours after treating a spinal tumor. The revolutionary technology can also treat soft tissue tumors in organs like the liver and kidneys.
